It took me a while to find this but it
appears 144Hz monitors can display at lower refresh rates, too. My questions are:
1) is this a scaled process, whereby if I wanted smooth 60Hz performance (PS4) I'd be better off with a 120Hz or 240Hz monitor (both easily divisible by 60) rather than a 144Hz or 165Hz display?
2) regardless of the answer to #1, is there any extra processing in reducing the refresh rate that would contribute to increased display lag? I understand that inherently a 60Hz refresh rate will have a minimum amount of display lag, I believe 16.6ms, but would it end up being worse than that if the monitor isn't a native 60Hz display? My ancient ASUS VW246H monitor only has 60Hz (and oddly 59Hz) listed in Windows display properties, hence my wondering about 144Hz going lower. And I noticed BenQ markets console-specific eSports gaming monitors that are 1080p 60Hz only. So I wonder... but can't find any info.
G-Sync?
FreeSync?
Enhanced Sync?
Fast Sync?
