ACER is prepping a gaming LCD with a refresh rate of 390Hz
The refresh rates are getting more absurd with each month that passes. We just tested a 360 Hz screen, however, ACER is already working on a new 390 Hz model.
There is a nuance to be made though, the gaming LCD panel supports a refresh rate of 360Hz during normal operation but in its OC mode runs 390Hz, which makes this one the first in the world. The LCD panel is IPS based, and the display synchronization technology is compatible with AMD FreeSync Premium. It also supports a high-speed response of 0.5ms, minimizing image display delays and stuttering, allowing you to enjoy the game with smooth images. In addition, "Game View" that optimizes screen settings according to the game genre, "Black Boost" that can adjust the strength of black in 11 stages, "Flickerless" that reduces fatigue due to long game play, "Blue Light Shield" It has unique functions such as.
LCD size is 24.5 inches, the resolution is full HD, the color gamut is sRGB 99% cover, contrast ratio 1,000: 1, the display color is about 16.7 million colors, viewing angle is horizontal/vertical 178 °, brightness is 400 cd / ㎡, high dynamic range Is VESA Display HDR 400 compliant. The interface is DisplayPort 1.4x1, HDMI2.0x2, headphone jack, etc. The speaker is 2Wx2, the stand supports -5 to 25 ° tilt, 360 ° swivel, -90 to 90 ° pivot, 120mm height adjustment, and the VESA mounter has a 100x100mm pitch.
The external dimensions are width 558m, depth 234mm, height 383-503mm, weight 5.03kg. Product warranty is 3 years (1 year for panel back panel). pricing will sit at 689 Euro

It is absurd considering the pixel response time probably wont be able to keep up with 390Hz refresh rate.
Most monitors that say they do is with overdrive maxed and introduces horrible artefacts and overshoot, no one plays like that.
The ones that work introduce flickering that not everyone eyes can stand without inducing vomiting.
For 390Hz the maximum pixel response time has to be perfectly under 2.564ms, not seeing that happen without introducing issues.
PS: Anyone can see a huge difference between 60 and 144Hz but after that, only competitive gamers that play all day might see some clear difference that help them. That and the power of the hardware needed to run at those refresh rates, I think its better just going from 1080p to 4k.
I don't think it's absurd, it's just natural progression. Hopefully all displays will be 1000hz at some point, with at least 4k resolution and gpus which can push 1000+ fps. I know people will say that it's diminishing returns, but I think VR would benefit from such buttery smooth refresh rates!

144Hz is more than enough for an average gamer, both anything above is only for eSports or professional needs.

Truth be told... I didn't think I would have felt the difference between 144hz and 240hz when I moved up to a higher refresh panel, but mousefeel was noticeably smoother. This is going from ASUS MG279Q (27" 144hz IPS) to Acer XB323U GX (32" 240hz IPS). The Acer has a 270hz mode but it causes color artifacting. I uploaded a video to document the artifacting.
But if you go from 240 to 360+... It'd be hard pressed to find a noticeable improvement in feel. Plus you need to go down to 1080p so there is that...

yes, only esport titles like cs go would even touch 360 fps to enjoy it, cant say any recent titles have gone over 144 on my 3090 lol
