60hz vs 75hz

Hello!
Will i feel a differnece between 60 and 75hz? I'll build a PC that can support 75fps (i'm getting a whole new setup cuz my current one can't even 40 fps CS:GO, yes... CSGO...) but i'm curious. I want to save money and the 75hz is 25$ more than the 60hz one. Should i buy it or i'll feel no difference if i bought it? Thanks!

choose the 75 hz thing. your eyes are not as stressed as theay are with 60 hz. why? more peaks per second for your eyes, which mens that the monitor is faster building up the image on your screen. more i dont know yet!? maybe someone else can explain better??
kind regards

75hz was implimented back in crt days where 60hz (outlet freq) would create interference with the crt tubes at 60hz

on lcd monitors it makes little difference other than the refresh rate

use 75hz if its responce time is under 6ms, else you wont notice as much of a diff

It has 1/2 ms of rt, Would You recommend it?

3ms is less than 6ms

at 60hz its 16ms between frames, on 8ms monitor, half of the time it will be displaying the correct image
75hz is 13ms between frames, 6ms or lower for the monitor to display the correct image more than half of the time

"Building PC that can support 75 Fps" is pretty wide term .
Are you planning to play things like CSGO,PUBG,League of Legends, or maybe you will play something like Witcher 3 , Far Cry , Assassins Creed , Fallout 4 , Call of Duty ?

My monitor have 144 hz , i can set it up to 165, for me , it isnt noticable

75hz is only 25% higher than 60hz

if you are aiming for 60fps gaming, 75 isnt much of a stretch
120-144 is a +100-150% jump

For only $25 more I would most deffinitly get a 75Hz monitor instead of 60Hz.

Ofc i'm aiming for 75fps, there would be no use for 75hz if below 75hz

O,da... Igrao bih Csgo,Pubg,Rainbow Six Siege i LoL,Mozda overwatch :)

Želim ušparati, ali opet, želim igrati u 1080p. Cs,Rss ,LoL,Overwatch nisu zahtjevni, samo je Pubg.
