"For the past 12 years, it has continued to be one of the most-played games in the world, headline competitive gaming tournaments and selling over 25 million units worldwide across the franchise. CS: GO promises to expand on CS' award-winning gameplay and deliver it to gamers on the PC as well as the next gen consoles and the Mac."

Then you have like what 10$-20$ left for savings? And sometimes food gets low before the end of the month and you would have to spend your savings for food or medicine if you get sick. Life ain’t easy for us dudes here, so if the monitor still works. It is better than nothing at all.

[@spidey229]

Imagine if everyone was capped on 60fps

[@TIOLIOfficial]

Better equipment won't make you a better player, but it will make it possible for you to be better. I remember when my little brother got a 240Hz monitor and the first time I sat behind it, I SHREDDED EVERYONE in that match. It was amazing. And the setup was a janky, old table that was higher than my shoulders, a bad and uncomfortable chair and a cheap Chinese mouse and optical switches keyboard. I haven't played on one in so long, yet I played better on it that I did on my mechanical keyboard, my much better mouse and PC, just with a 60Hz screen. Hertz do matter. A lot.

[@baphometrag7751]

Is it important for frame rate to reach what refresh rate numbers? Im sorry im not a fan of first person shooter games

[@mateusz5872]

Yes. Refresh rate is how many frames your monitor can display. If your pc is unable to provide enough frames for it, it has got nothing to display

[@valoranthighlights9542]

Refresh rate is how many times a second your monitor refreshes, not how many frames it can display. a 240hz monitor has a delay between each frame of around 4ms, a 60hz monitor around 16ms, 144hz around 6.8ms, so if you are on a budget definetely the most value for money is 144hz or 165hz because the reduction of delay from 60hz to 144hz is around 10ms, while from 144hz to 240hz only 2.8ms

[@hawk7794]

[@ukasz1634]

why they strafing after every shot

[@alexanderb5485]

they are reseting visual context for their brains - it improves the reaction speed. Brain forms visual habits very fast, and speed of forming habit is proportional for the level of concentration. 3-5 seconds of constant view ...and your reaction drop beyond 0.25 sec, brain is very lazy by nature )

[@mastershooter64]

Because the y're used to it. In a match if you don't strafe after a shot you're just an easy shot for the enemy going for the trade

[@istiqamahkonsisten]

You know what? This video give me dizziness

[@felipesb2]

I think you should put all of them to play at 30fps for 30minutes. Then make a competition where they not know what fps is running on the machine. For some of them, you put 60 locked, for others 360 locked. Why that first step? Because when they play in 30fps and then upgrade to 60fps, they'll feel a great smoothness gain, but they'll not know with precision what framerate is. If you start the test from a highier fps and then decrease, they'll fell this degradation.

It's essentially how many fps you can actually see with that monitor. So think 360Hz you can see 360 fps, but on a 60 Hz monitor, you'll only see 60 fps.
