If you put an fps cap at 120, you'd consistently get a really high quality experience! But instead, there is a number on the screen that goes from 500 to 170 (and, yes, it "feels different"), and so there's a "problem." I just can't bring myself to prioritize that.

This tweet by @SadlyItsBradley is excellent advice if you hate virtual reality motion blur. Many headsets shorten pulse width to reduce brightness, which reduces motion blur. Motion blur on impulsed = pulsetime. 2ms pulse = 20 pixels of motionblur at 10000 pixel/sec head turn!

@cybereality Yeah. 480Hz is a gimmick, but 240Hz is quite common nowadays. Even gaming laptops have 240Hz 1440p screens nowadays. I personally prefer 120Hz/144Hz as the sweet spot. 240Hz requires so much computational power for so tiny gain. Good for eSports professionals of course.

Creative use of reprojection in non-VR context! We've been paying attention to reprojection as a blur busting technology on OLEDs. Reprojection is capable of large fps-increase ratios (4:1+) as a flicker-free substitute for black frame insertion.

SSAO reading last frame Z-buffer using reprojected positions. Looks pretty good. There's of course some issues on screen edges and some occlusion issues too, but the quality is likely acceptable for phones.

Blind tests show 240 vs 1000Hz OLED is more visible to >90% of non-gamers than 144 vs 240Hz LCD. (metaphorically VHS vs 8K temporally to be visible) But in esports, smaller differences are much more important. Is CS2 an esports game? Yes/No 🙃

@Famous_Potatoes @LukeChannings @backlon Fortunately, scrolling is handled largely by the OS, so it scrolls nicely at 120Hz, just animations inside webpages are hard-capped to 60fps. Apple does it for battery power management, but I wish there was a configurable option.

To Monitor Reviewers: PSA: Please follow pursuit camera guidelines for display motion blur photography. Whether you do video-based pursuit or photo-based pursuit. Each frame MUST be MINIMUM 2x refresh long, preferably about 4x refresh (i.e. 1/30sec for 120Hz) Thank you!

Everyone sees differently. Stutters? Tearing? Lag? Blurs? Remember, 12% of the population is colorblind. There's over 100+ ergonomic issues of screens trying to simulate real life. Not all need high Hz. And adding more blur can be an ergonomic feature for others.

PSA: Future Gaming Monitors Need Optional 60Hz Single-Strobe Support. We need proper motion blur reduction for 60 years of legacy 60fps 60Hz content. Most gaming monitors support motion blur reduction at 120Hz and up. But not for 60Hz. This is an easy monitor feature to add.

@HardwareUnboxed The VESA standard certainly has its flaws. That being said, I did notice that OLED has very approximately a 1.3x to 1.5x clearer motion per Hz, due to lack of GtG blurring added to MPRT blurring. And that GtG & MPRT beyond 10%-90% is also human visible too, despite cutoff.

@mdrejhon @mikeev I predict that Apple is likely going to do a 240Hz iPad by roughly year 2027-2028(ish). The mainstream tech reviewers now acknowledge 240Hz is no longer for esports, at least when using OLED. We found even 120-vs-480 ***OLED*** more visible to grandma than 60-vs-120 ***LCD***

We need to refactor Vulkan/etc in 10 years to framerateless workflow. Different rates (controller, rumble, mouse, display) can be different but would still optimize to max rate for each (e.g. framerate=Hz autoframegen on 1000fps 1000Hz regardless of underlying framerate).

This is a perfect example of performance dictating the usable feature set. If some feature is too slow to use on your target device, then you have to cut it. That feature doesn't exist for you.

@Konwizzle Some LCDs already beat CRT motion clarity (e.g. Quest VR LCD & Valve Index VR LCD, as well as XG2431 strobe backlight). However, 1000fps 1000Hz allow flickerless motion clarity to reach CRT territory. Motion blur is pixel visibility time, which puts sample-hold at disadvantage
