Question: Does a higher refresh rate monitor make sense?

For non esports stuff, do you think high refresh rate monitors, 144Hz for example, make sense?

The difference between 30 FPS and 60 FPS is titanic. Does that carry over to higher than 60 FPS or do you get diminishing returns?

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.
