What refresh rate is your monitor at?

[Rado45]

Mine is 75hz, not much but it's on a very old 17" at 1024*768*24. What the ideal refresh (and feasible) ?

 

[fkloster]

120hz (1152x864x32bit) GDM-F500R / Herc GTS 64meg

Very sweet spot for me.

Mine is set for "Optimal". When I set it manually, which is rare, I keep it at least 85Hz if possible since I can see flicker at 75Hz on my big screen (19&quot. I'm not sure what my combination is capable of for a maximum, but with my NEC and the Radeon, it's probably around 110-120Hz at 1280x1024x16 (or 32, can't remember).

85hz @ 1280 1024 on my Optiqest V95. I can't stand anything less than that.

100Hz 1024 x 768 x 32bits

85Hz, anything else (to me) is either too flickery or not noticeable. I've heard the lower you run your refresh, the longer your monitor can last. So it seems a good rule of thumb is to run it as low as you can while maintaining a high level of comfort... for a lot of people that's 85Hz on a 17-19" monitor and 100Hz on a 21".

AOC 17" at 1152x864x16@85Mhz. I don't like it below 85Mhz

85 works good for me

 

[glen]

Where does one look to see what speed it runs at when set to optimal?

 

[chiwawa626]

100hz @ 1280*1024 on my kds av-195tf

 

[andri]

100Hz... I can see 75Hz flicker.

 

[MegalodoN]

85Hz

 

[Mem]

85Hz also can go higher but no point at the resolution I`m at.

 

[Blayze]

85hz

 

[Electric Amish]

75hz @ 1152x864x32bit on a 17" ViewSonic E773 + Geforce 256 32mb

That's the highest I can get. If I goto 1280x960 or higher, it drops to 60hz.

My 19" KDS VS-195e + G400 at home runs at 1280x1024x32bit @ 85hz.

Higher is always better, I'd say.

100 Hz @ 1024.768.32BPP on 19" GemStar Monitor(Delta DA995 tube) and a ATI Rage Fury PRO

 

[HigherGround]

1600x1200x32bpp @ 85Hz

 

[lotust]

glen I forget too

 

[Maverick2002]

85hz 1024x768
syncmaster 755df

BTW, can i go to 100hz with that setup?

 

[Rado45]

hmmm, not sure if mine is really 75hz, since all of you can see 75 flicker. How can I see my refresh rate?

 

[3615buck]

1024x768 32 @ 120 Hz

 

[glen]

If we are set to "optimal" how do we figure out what rate that is?

 

[duragezic]

1280x1024x85hz.

Maverick: Nope. 85hz is the max.

Chiwawa: How the hell do you get 100hz when 85hz is the max? KDS AV-195TF Site

A lot of OSDs will have a "info" screen which will tell you what refresh you're running at. Or it might give your horizontal rate (kHz). Divide this by your vertical resolution to get your refresh rate.

i.e. 77kHz at 1024 x 768 = 100Hz.
