I'm asking for your experience...

I recently watched a few videos on how it's better for competitive gaming (it is by far)

So, I got a 240hz monitor - Dell 24270HF. At first I was hitting nutty shots and frags but after sometime my eyes felt more strained and found it hard to almost refresh my eyes and attention to how quickly the monitor was refreshing information.

I went straight from 60hz --> 240hz maybe I'm just not used to it yet. Anyhow, if any of you have a 240hz monitor do you find it more straining on your eyes after a long time and has your skill level/rank gone up since you have had your 240hz monitor?

Let me know <3

EDIT: Gramatical error.

There are diminishing returns between 144 and 240, but the jump from 60 to 144 alone cannot be understated. If you have the extra cash and play super competitive CS, for example, then 240 would be worth it. Otherwise just order a really good 144hz right now, you will not regret it whatsoever.

your skills comes from experience i would say , it's good that you have a good 240hz but it's all about skill , what mouse you use how you use it makes important roll you know.

a 240hz monitor helps little in the gameplay but you need a percentage and frames equal or higher to use it.

yeah it defnitely increases a bit your skill as the playermodels run more smooth and you see an enemy bit faster than someone on a 60hz monitor Smile

240hz makes the game smoother, which will allow you to see 4x as clearly when you miss every shot.

240 wont increase your skill. your skill will be the same from 60 to 240, however because its smoother and lower lag. your shots will be more consistent and it allows for a higher skill ceiling
