60hz vs 144hz in gaming ?

KoHinoor Singh · Jul 20, 2016

what the big difference between 60hz and 144hz in gaming should i buy 60hz monitor or 144 hz monitor for gaming

strike2001 · Jul 20, 2016

depends on your pc. The difference between the two is that the 60HZ one can only display 60FPS while the 144hz can display 144FPS what will give a "smoother" gaming experince.

but 144hz monitors are way more expensive in india

You get what you pay for no matter where you are.

KoHinoor Singh :

There are all ways more expensive from 60hz. I guess in India evrey thing is more expensive so the price difference between the two will also be bigger.

KoHinoor Singh · Jul 20, 2016

you say right but can you suggest me buget 144hz gaming monitor

Depends on many factors. What type of games you play, can your PC push over 100 fps in most games and really how seriously do you want to take your gaming.

KoHinoor Singh · Jul 20, 2016

i can easily push over 100fps in most games since i am going to buy gtx1060 graphics card

Give us your PC specs and we can start from there.

KoHinoor Singh · Jul 20, 2016

you are right in india everything is expensive so should i buy 60hz monitor

sizzling · Jul 20, 2016

At 1080p you will need to dial down the settings in modern games to hit 100fps with a 1060, the 1070 is far more suited to a 1080p 144Hz monitor. If your going with a 1060 I would go with a 60Hz monitor

KoHinoor Singh · Jul 20, 2016

i read somewhere that gtx 1060 = gtx 980 so why we cant play modern games at ultra settings and also gtx 1060 supports 4k gaming

KoHinoor Singh :

The 1060 sits somewhere between the 970 and 980 performance wise, and I can tell you holding 100+FPS on some of the latest titles on ultra settings 1080p is not feasible on that class of card. Play something like Witcher 3, the newest Assassin's Creed games or Rise of the Tomb Raider on ultra and you're going to struggle to hold 60FPS constant, let alone get 100 or more. The 1060 technically does support 4K, but it's not really fast enough to game at that resolution unless you're only playing old or graphically undemanding games, or you're okay with running low-medium settings at around 30FPS.

If you're willing to turn some settings down in exchange for higher framerates, or you play graphically undemanding games, then getting a 144Hz display might be worthwhile to you, particularly if you play online multiplayer FPS or something else that is fast paced. If not, you can always get a 60Hz display to save some money, or maybe look putting the extra money towards a 60Hz IPS panel instead and get better colour reproduction than what you'd get on a budget 144Hz display.

The 980 was a 1080p 60Hz card, for 100fps+ you needed a 980Ti or sli 970's. Here have a look at a few results of the 1060 http://www.anandtech.com/bench/product/1771

KoHinoor Singh · Jul 21, 2016

i have seen the benchmarks. so should i go with 6ohz or 144hz gaming for gtx 1060

Corwin65 · Jul 21, 2016

With the 1060, you won't consistently reach your targeted FPS. Go with 60hz.

KoHinoor Singh · Jul 21, 2016

if i buy overclocked edition of this graphics card will i able to reach 144hz

Corwin65 · Jul 21, 2016

The 1060, while a good card, is not intended for that. It's the budget card of the new line.

So no it will not. It is a 60hz card.

KoHinoor Singh · Jul 21, 2016

ok.thanks a lot

Corwin65 · Jul 21, 2016

Anytime.

Good Luck!
