144hz vs 240hz
Hello

Is there anyone here actually using 240hz or is it mainly a pro + youtuber only thing?
The monitors seem awfully expensive and all have this obnoxious GAMER look to them. Do they really give you a big advantage over 144hz?

144hz is better

You can 'feel' the difference between 144hz and 240hz but its not worth the money
Maybe go for it when 1440p 240hz becomes mainstream

144hz is a lot better for your money compared to 240hz monitors. 240hz monitors are really expensive for what they are, you might as well just get a 144hz monitor its not all that expensive, and can perform almost as good as 240hz.

60 to 144 big difference
144 to 240 very little
240 HZ İS GOOD

Well at that point I'm certain I will need a whole new PC. Currently on 4th gen Intel processor.
But thank you for the advice

Doesn't matter actually with vsync disabled, 60/144/240

I saw a player in GE MM with 6 kills at the end of a match, and in his profile description was a Nice 240hz monitor. Just go for 300hz monitor/laptop.

420hz best

Yeah it seems like an alright deal performance wise but it looks so ugly with the simple round foot when you consider how much you pay for it. It bothers me because all the 240hz screens look either very cheap and ugly or very gamer-ish.

It's better to get 144hz with IPS

Next-level colors and sharpness refreshing at 144hz.

Really? I always thought IPS was worse for gaming than TN

From 60 to 144 or even 120 to 144 is a big spike. You can definitely feel/notice the smoothness it brings with it. For 240, you need to know for what you are looking for.

1. Your'e Games mus be running at least at 240FPS constantly to get the benefits from this feature XD
2. You need to get the reactions to actual get benefits from this insane response time/smoothness.

Try to start with a 144hz Monitor. They are way cheaper and are a good way to start gaming on high refresh

Im using a 144 Hz since 2 Years now and once you go from 60hz to 144hz you are not able to get back.... :D

I've a BenQ ZOWIE XL2536 - this is one of the best csgo specific 144hz monitor. This monitir is also available in 240 hz.

When you've enough money and can get 240+ fps all the time a 240hz monitor is completely worth it. I made the mistake and upgraded only from 60hz to 144 but 240 would even be way better.

So. When you love csgo, play it a lot, have a good pc and can afford a 240hz monitor then get one.
