144hz after 240hz feels like a sh*t?
Just wondering worth to buy 240hz? Owners of 240hz how it feels?

Also 240hz monitors usually have a hefty price tag and require a good graphics card to run.

haven't tried either of those, but my guess its just gonna be way more smoother than 144 hz

I suppose it won't nearly be as much difference as between 144 and 60hz. Maybe a little smoother, but not that much of a difference.

I thought same until bought 144, it's pretty same as 60fps vs 30fps

ive seen videos where people say the difference between 144hz and 244hz is quite minimal, just add another 144hz to ur set up

Diminishing returns...

Going from 30 to 60 - huge difference
From 60 to 144 - noticeable difference
From 144 - 240 very slight difference

It's a huge difference, and anyone who says otherwise is a fool.

There is no difference at all tbh. I can't see a difference on 165hz either.
What I can see a difference on is from 1080p to 1440p

I think 144 is the sweet spot and in the vast majority of games you will not be going above that in FPS anyway.

I agree with this, I have both and while I can spot the difference in a side by side comparission, the difference is nowhere near what people makes it out to be and unless you are REALLY GOOD, it won't make one a better CS GO player.

In my eyes the difference is huge. I have a 144/165 (Built-in overclock to 165) monitor. When I reseted my pc my monitor once got stuck at 60hz for some reason.
I could feel the games being weird and the fluidity wasnt there anymore. I just knew something was wrong.
Hell even just moving your cursor on the desktop felt bad.
There's a big difference from 60 to 144+, trust me.

get 240hz if u can afford it and ur pc is good enough

I own 240hz, the difference is slight but noticable, i used it mostly because I was sick of the ghosting on 144hz when doing a quick 90 degree flick. unless you're currently ranked mg or higher, don't bother getting 240hz

Went from 60Hz monitor straight to 240Hz and I will never go back because its just buttery smooth, if you can afford then I'd suggest you go for 240Hz since you'll not regret every second with it.
yes, smooth
