What do i need for 120hz




















When in doubt, use the cable your monitor came with. It should work—in theory. Unfortunately, cheap, low-quality cables can also cause problems. Instead, the screen would occasionally flicker and the refresh rate would drop down to 60Hz until we rebooted the computer. We replaced the cable with a higher-quality Accell DisplayPort cable and the monitor operated fine at Hz without any flickering or refresh rate drops.

As always, make sure your cables are securely connected. A loose cable connection could cause problems. Image Credit: Lalneema. Browse All iPhone Articles Browse All Mac Articles Do I need one?

Best Roku TV. Best Apple Watch. Best iPad Cases. Best Portable Monitors. Although DisplayPort is always a great alternative, if you want to take advantage of a high refresh rate monitor or TV, an HDMI Hhz connection is more than possible. The easiest high resolution to hit Hz at is p. It's not only achievable on earlier generations of HDMI connection, but the hardware you'll need to achieve it is a relatively low bar too.

As long as you have at least HDMI 1. You can even do up to Hz if your display supports it. For many gamers, p is seen as the sweet spot, as it looks much better than p, but isn't as demanding as 4K, making it easier to hit high refresh rates.

Although HDMI 1. It has double the bandwidth of HDMI 1. You'll find HDMI 2. Outside of virtual reality, arguably the most demanding — but also the most immersive — gaming settings you can push for is 4K resolution at Hz. For an HDMI 4K Hz connection, this most recent generation of the unified cable offers bandwidth in excess of just about anything that has come before. Samsung is better than it used to be about this, albeit not as transparent as LG.

Sony: MotionFlow XR. Vizio: Refresh Rate. Vizio used to list an "Effective Refresh Rate" on its web site, which was just double the native refresh rate. For , however, none of its TVs use that term as far as we could find, and most don't list any refresh rate spec. The bottom line? TCL's sets are all over the place. Some don't list any motion term -- those are 60Hz native.

And some say Natural Motion , but they're 60Hz as well. For the most effective increase in motion resolution, and compatibility with next-gen gaming consoles' best video output modes, you need a native Hz refresh television. That said, it is possible to have some improvement in motion resolution even with a 60Hz TV if it uses some other feature, like backlight scanning or black frame insertion, that improves motion resolution.

Refresh rate is how often a TV changes the image also known as a "frame" onscreen. With traditional televisions, this was 60 times each second, or "60Hz. Some modern TVs can refresh at double this rate, or Hz frames per second. That just depends on the electricity in your country. For the purposes of this article, 50 and 60 work the same, as do and For my own sanity, and ease of reading, I'm going to stick with 60 and , but feel free to read that as 50 and if you're in the UK, Australia or any place that has 50Hz electricity.

So are these higher refresh numbers just another "more is better! Not entirely. Interestingly, this blur is largely created by your brain. Basically, your brain notices the motion, and makes assumptions as to where that object or overall image is going to be in the next fraction of a second. The problem with LCD and current OLED TVs is that they hold that image there for the full 60th of a second, so your brain actually smears the motion, thinking it should be moving, when in fact it's just a series of still images.

It's actually quite fascinating, but the details are beyond the scope of this article. I recommend checking out BlurBuster's great article for more info. The motion blur we're talking about here, despite coming from your brain, is caused by how the television works.

This is separate from whatever blur the camera itself creates. Some people aren't bothered by motion blur. Some don't even notice it. Others, like me, do notice it and are bothered by it.
