Not everyone notices a difference ofcourse. But it doesn't even have to be in perceived "smoothness" since higher refresh monitor should also have better motion clarity which can be just as important.

Yeah that’s why I got the 240s for the rig. Important for racing. It’s just really not a big difference between that and 120 unless you’re really looking for it.

Same could be said about my expensive headphones too I guess lol.

Yeah for headphones i can relate, while i can hear the difference, after about 5 minutes of listening I no longer care and most headphones are good enough for me.

With my monitor i instantly feel whenever the 280hz mode fucks up and drops to 240hz even though it should barely make a difference. I tested it out with some friends and some couldn't see the difference between 120 and 280 while I can pretty much spot on tell what refresh rate im running except 144 vs 165hz
