Thanks for clearing that up! as an avid fps player it's the main reason why I picked up the monitor, for all other games it's just a perk to have.you are wrong, there are several monitors which have real 120hz.. such a list includes the one OP is talking about (benq xl2420t). I also have 2 monitores that have real 120hz, samsung 2233rz and LG 2363d.
Real 120hz is not the same as true motion or any other technology that they use on LCD/LED TVs. In fact, these tecnologies suck to play any game, because they generate fake frames that will lead to ghosts, trailing and other stuff.. its just a bad technology to play games.
Real 120hz on the other hand is the most beautiful thing they ever invented, first time i laid eyes on it i just couldnt let it go. Most games i rather play on 22' 1680x1050 than on a 27' 2560x1440.
Any real fps gamer has a 120hz monitor.


This is correct here. 120Hz from a TV and a PC Monitor are two completely different things.you are wrong, there are several monitors which have real 120hz.. such a list includes the one OP is talking about (benq xl2420t). I also have 2 monitores that have real 120hz, samsung 2233rz and LG 2363d.

60 FPS are quite enough for me, for instance one can frag in optimal conditions in BF3 with such a frame rate, even if above clearly is fairly better. As regards FFXIV, I don't feel the need of smooth gameplay, but when you hit the maximum refresh rate, nearly everywhere apart from the cities, you truly feel the difference btw a 60FPS-Coerthas and a 40FPS-crowded Ul'Dah.
Still, for the moment, I don't really need a higher cap - my 670 wouldn't handle it anyway -, just a decent optimization so as to be allowed to play without those significant frame rate drops.

Regardless of whether our current computers can handle the 60+ fps or not, like another poster said, we want the game to be somewhat future proof. So make it possible to hit the higher end stuff and when the prices of tech goes down , in 2 years when we are all playing on new computers with our lvl 75/80/? characters we will be able to go out and get new computers/parts and experience a beautiful smooth game.


It's was uncapped at one point and it was messing ppl pc's up so they took it out. I don't really see the need for anything over 60 you can't tell anyway, the human eye can't keep up.




Locking it to 60fps is a very profoundly noticeable difference from 30fps. It basically eradicated all latency problems I was having, which shocked me due to it not effecting the internet at all.


Hertz is Hertz unless your re-writing the book on frequency'sThis is correct here. 120Hz from a TV and a PC Monitor are two completely different things.

This is a common misconception.


Correct, both can DISPLAY 120Hz. However TVs only accept 60Hz input, where the monitors can accept 120Hz input. The TVs just create fake frames.
