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?

Up to 90-120hz is pretty nice. That’s the sweet spot for me. I’m not into esports and also I’m an environmentalist so 240hz and 360 hz monitors just seem really excessive to me since you need hundreds of watts of power to push those frame rates. I usually run like 75 hz on my steamdeck or other lower power devices.
