Re: New 360 Hz IPS Gaming Monitor by DELL

as long you're not getting stick-slip effects, your mousefeet are smooth enough. for mouse sensors and pads, it's more of a thing where either it tracks accurately, or it tracks with very obvious glitches. the newest sensors from pixart (33xx) generally don't have issues with any pads. i've actually...

Re: Trying to fully understand screen tearing, would love it if you guys could help me understand it fully.

example suppose your monitor is running at 100Hz, and you have a 2ms vblank interval at time 0ms: monitor is updating pixel 1 (top left corner) 4ms: monitor is updating the middle pixel of the monitor 8ms: monitor is updating the last pixel (bottom right corner) between 8ms and 10ms: nothing is happ...

Re: Will i get more Input lag with Custom Resolution and Refresh rate?

i cannot tell you for sure but i would have absolute no reason to believe so

Re: Trying to fully understand screen tearing, would love it if you guys could help me understand it fully.

vblank interval. the period of time when nothing on the screen is being updated. something like this might help understand https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2018/01/video-demonstrates-the-marvel-of-crt-displays-at-380000-frames-per-second/ for example, you can think of the signal in your video cable l...

Re: Measurement Device for Display Lag

As far as I can tell, this simplifies the problem a bit too much: this is how you know i'm a physicist :D 1. A "perfect display" would be a display with zero lag, wouldn't it? This obviously does not exist, so if we would do a comparison, we would have to compare to a "non-perfect" display. This wa...

fresh mouse feet, and high-resolution mouse pad.
mouse feet worn by use on a cloth pad are actually smoother than most fresh mouse feet

there's no such thing as a high-resolution mouse pad. pretty much any pad that isn't a mirror surface has sufficient resolution.

Re: Measurement Device for Display Lag

almost as breakthrough as Einstein's formula, in our opinion this is a comparison between the theory of input lag to "Einstein's formula". that's what i'm calling far fetched. the comparisons between yourself and einstein... that's a different thing. nothing personal. just saying, the concepts/theo...

Re: Measurement Device for Display Lag

Maybe a bit of an exaggeration (ego), but: as someone who's done physics for about 12 years now, let me just say that it is very much an exaggeration :P I bring high-Hz displays, TestUFO PowerPoints, high speed cameras filmed in real time in front of audience, and ways of demonstrating human-visibl...

Re: Measurement Device for Display Lag

and there are multiple numbers to add up and different ways to add them up.

anyway my point is that comparing to anything by einstein is far fetched.

Re: New 360 Hz IPS Gaming Monitor by DELL

how about in time?

60hz = 16.67ms
90hz = 11.11ms
180hz = 5.56ms

is the improvement from 60hz to 90hz comparable to the improvement from 90hz to 180hz?

(i feel like 90 -> 180 is a bigger improvement than 60 -> 90. so this is not perfect either)
