60 HZ or 120 HZ ???

Post by LegendsStudio »

My S2K seems to only have 60 HZ screen resolutions for the monitor so my question is would I benefit from using a monitor with 120 HZ refresh rate and will it even work? I would appreciate an answer before I go out and buy a new monitor this weekend... Thanks in advance :)

This is called OVERCLOCKING. The refresh rate will be faster but will limit the life of the monitor. Good for gaming etc.

Stick with the 60Hz setting. I have a somewhat expensive professional monitor and I set BOGART to 60Hz to match the monitor. Just my opinion.

Thanks Lou ... The 60 HZ Monitor Samsung is about 200 dollars cheaper than the 120 Hz anyway so I guess I will get the bargain one :)
