I have 2 monitor setup. Primary one is 165 Hz VA, the other is 60 Hz IPS as secondary screen for stuff like chat or background video. While the VA has some problems (it can’t catch some particular color changes in needed time-frame), it’s generally much smoother. Not just games, but in desktop workflow too. You suddenly feel your mouse is somehow smoother on one screen and feels choppy on the other. Ever since I got the 165 Hz monitor, I’m constantly thinking of upgrading the secondary one too, just for the smoothness. The only thing holding me back is it’s just more money spent when not needed, but man… the QOL surely is there and is so tempting.
