    Default What means the 120hz on a monitor

    I want to buy a new monitor but I am in doubt whether something worth spending more for one of 120Hz, which means? I need more graphics power to use those 120hz or improvement that the monitor generates no more? Greetings to all.

    You and my question is, on a monitor at 120hz refresh rate if vsync active which means that instead of limiting to 60 the limits fps to 120?I'm very green with this issue is not what is the benefit of 120hz and if I have to sacrifice to take advantage fps or not.

    Leaving the 3D part, it means your monitor can give 120 frames per second maximum, resulting in a more seamless experience as long as the graph is able to provide enough fps in the application / game you want.

    But see, for example if I set up a game at 1920x1080 with 120hz + vsync 60Hz instead of as now, the game locks fps to 60 have vsync enabled or happen to 120hz? that or not has nothing to do?

    Well if you have power, you would synchronize with the 120, or you block them to 120. That in games "fat" is impossible with a GTX 570.

    Even at these frames 120Hz monitor will always flow more sense for the shortest response time, and even not surprise me with a little less input lag than the 60Hz .
