Monitor Refresh Rate — Hz Detector

Hz (Frames per second)

📊 Common Refresh Rates

  • 60Hz — Standard. Most monitors and laptops.
  • 75Hz — Budget gaming improvement.
  • 120Hz — Smooth. iPhones and iPads.
  • 144Hz — Common gaming monitor.
  • 165–240Hz — Competitive gaming.
  • 360Hz+ — Professional esports.

🎮 Why Refresh Rate Matters

Higher refresh rate = smoother motion and potentially faster response. At 144Hz you see a new frame every 6.9ms vs 16.7ms at 60Hz. For competitive gaming, this can matter. For casual use, 60Hz is fine.
