Hey guys welcome back to TechTalk episode 6 where I will be addressing this quesiton as best as I can and that is - should I buy a 120hz monitor, is there any difference to a 60hz monitor?

My best recommendation is this - if YOU can NOTICE the difference then its definitely something to consider. The 1440p IPS 60hz is a beautiful monitor as well, so do what YOU want to do :). I love my 120hz monitor and gaming on it is so fluid, plus its a very responsive monitor.

Hope you guys enjoy. Lastly the monitors I know are 120hz are the ASUS VG278HE (144hz actually) / Samsung s23a700d (glossy screen) / BenQ XL2420T
