Is a 144hz Monitor Worth it?

    Always worth the upgrade, anyone that says they cant tell the difference have probably never experienced it. I would never go back to 60Hz

    Not worth the price, not for gaming.

    The IPS panels would be the only ones worth considering, speaking as a graphics buff. Otherwise, I don't see that LOSING visual quality is worth spending 5x the cost of a good gaming LCD.

    Even with IPS, the higher FPS capability is jsut that. You will still be FPS capped by the capability of your video card.

    Also, IPS panels are designed mostly as a replacement for the desktop graphics design industry. They generally have terrible ghosting issues due to extremely bad refresh as they weren't really designed with high motion rendering in mind.

    I have a BenQ XL2730Z monitor. It is 144Hz and uses adaptive sync (using AMD's FreeSync Technology). a-sync is very very worth it. I run the game at ~70-100 FPS depending on how CPU limited I am in certain areas and it is a consistently smooth and tear-free experience.

    The upgrade was well worth it for me.

    Nvidia 3D vision requires a monitor capable of 120Hz. 3D vision is definitely worth it for ESO.

    Please stop making requests for game features. ZOS have enough bad ideas as it is!
