I bought a 240hz monitor. Did I fuck up, /g/?

>>62372212
yes

>>62372212
Does it have any adaptive sync technology?
Do you have a GPU powerful enough to even go above 144fps?
What games do you play?

>>62372212
no

Oh, and before the insults of 'manchild' come out, there's only one use for monitors over 120hz, and that's gaming.
Sure, you could argue it makes things nicer with a higher refresh, but 120 does the job for that. 144+ is gaming territory.

What's with the horse blinders?

>Does it have any adaptive sync technology?
No, doesn't seem like there's a point with that refresh rate. I did get the one with the blur reducing technology.
>Do you have a GPU powerful enough to even go above 144fps?
I get more or less stable 240fps+ at 1440p in my main game.

I also do own a 1440p IPS monitor with decent color reproduction for non-gaming stuff.

I secretly like them because they remind me of the professional grade displays I used to salivate over when I was more into graphic design and shit.

>>62372407
Screen tearing is still possible even at high refresh rates.

>>62372436
It's 100% possible and will happen, but ultra high refresh screen tearing is barely noticeable.
It's besides the point though, because somebody buying a 240hz monitor would probably despise any kind if syncing since it introduces input lag. I sure hope OP is a CS:GO pro, because thats the only reason you'd want to invest in gimmick shit like this.

what are those stupid fins for?

>>62372607
Blocking light to keep the colours accurate.

>>62372722
so like i thought fucking stupid and gimmicky

>>62372764
yeah, they're removable though so it's no big deal

>>62372764
they're useful for hyper-accurate professionally calibrated monitors used for video editing, graphic design and photography
a 240hz TN panel isn't going to have even close to good enough colour reproduction to need them so in this case they are a bit gimmicky.

>>62372212
It has wings!

>>62372875
I think they're meant more for like LANs and shit, the monitor even has a handle on the back.

>>62372273
Considering that 144hz+ monitors are way cheaper due to them being way more commonly manufactured any more due to VESA adaptive syncing, there is far more reason to get 144hz then a 120hz monitor ya dummy.

>>62372212
yes

You're the only one that got it right.
