Professional competitive gamers are well aware of the advantages that higher refresh rates offer. Not only does it make the experience smoother and more responsive, but it also allows gamers to be faster and more precise. With the industry moving towards high refresh rate screens on phones, laptops, handheld gaming devices, and other products, gaming monitors are where all the benchmarks are set when it comes to the highest refresh rates.
