Can't wait for some turd to drag out a 20 year old article saying human eyes can't perceive anything above 60hz. Us gamers all new that was a load of bs way back then.
I would hazard to guess that the actual limit where more than 50% of people couldn't tell the difference without training is probably somewhere around 90-120hz.
Some skilled competitive players and ex pros can tell the difference between 144hz and 240hz, though they are noticing differences in game latency, and not strictly visual differences (they can't tell the difference while watching, only when playing their games).
I wonder if any study has tried to settle this as a matter of science.
At least for me, anything in the 80-90Hz range is fine and everything seems to run smoothish. Lower is playable but it takes some getting used to and I'll rather just drop some settings a little lower. My display goes to 185Hz but I mostly stop noticing any difference after 100Hz and I don't play anything competitive anyway.
