I’m not sure there ever has been 30hz monitors. Going from 60 to 120 is double, just like 30 to 60. Having just made that jump this year, I can say yes,it’s very nice.
There have been 60hz interlaced displays, that displayed alternate fields and so did a complete refresh 30 times a second. Actually, I guess that’s what NTSC broadcast TV was. It looks like ass in every other application, though.

Well, if your setup is right, there won’t be 30Hz monitors. Plugging in an old DVI cable you have laying around to a 4k monitor might just do it.
Didn’t most console games run at 30fps until recently, so effectively 30hz, right?
Yes. Someone pointed out that NTSC standard was 60hz with interlaced frames. Effectively 30fps like your talking about. But that ended with CRTs.
