And apparently gamers really see a difference. Here's another review of another 480Hz monitor
> Playing at 480hz mode sort of feels like you’re cheating. The mouse feels like an extension of your hand–Just zipping around, rotating, aiming. It’s fantastic. > > ... > > When playing 3rd person action games, RTS’s, and side-scrollers, the motion clarity of 480hz was *very *obvious. It feels like an image is being pushed and pulled across the monitor, not rendered. It looks sort of, perfect, sometimes in a very mundane way. > > Contrary to what I was expecting, FPS’s at 480hz mode are *not *noticeably smoother than 144/240hz! This was surprising.The premium end of the mobile world is at 120Hz and so are most of the higher end TVs. Computer monitors are still squarely stuck at 60Hz. I now believe that I will not be upgrading any of my computer monitors until 120Hz becomes more the norm while everyone chases 480Hz.
