Remember framerate=Hz

DYAC + 144FPS = Meh (a no for mee)
You need to intentionally lower your refresh rate to 144Hz to make it look good.

DYAC + 240FPS = Yes, quite acceptable

DYAC + 360FPS = Amazing, you can even read the text while scrolling like on a classic CRT. Now, let´s find the game allowing that.
Yep, 360fps 360Hz looks amazing.
But... 360fps is hard for GPUs.
HOWTO: Properly Using DyAc+ as a CRT Replacement
Here's a tip: If your priority is CRT-look over latency:
144fps 144Hz DyAc+ looks much better than 200fps 360Hz DyAc+
Try It. Lowering Refresh Rate Can Improve Strobe Quality If Easier To Get Framerate=Hz
- Good for solo games where lag isn't as important
- Good for more accurate CRT simulation
- Good for lower end GPUs
- Good for RTX raytracing and pathtracing
- Looks Much Better Than 360Hz when your frame rates are extremely low
360Hz strobe capable display can be a defacto luxury 120Hz-240Hz CRT, there's less strobe crosstalk.
DyAc+ even looks better at low refresh rates such as 100Hz-144Hz VSYNC
ON than 360Hz VSYNC OFF. No double images at framerate=Hz. 120fps+120Hz on 360Hz panels look better quality than 120fps+120Hz on 120Hz panels, which is why it looks so amazing.
Lowering Refresh Rate Reduces Number Of Duplicate Images At Low Frame Rates
That's why lowering refresh rate to match frame rate can improve DyAc+!
144fps 144Hz DyAc+ looks MUCH better than 144fps 360Hz DyAc.
CRT Motion Quality Tip: Framerate = Refreshrate = Stroberate
But to make it look better than "low framerates at 360Hz", please use a low latency framerate=Hz sync technology to get the proper "CRT experience"
Low Latency framerate=Hz technologies
- VSYNC ON + NULL (easiest)
-
Low-Lag VSYNC HOWTO (harder)
- RTSS Scanline Sync (if you can do framerate=Hz at 50% GPU)
- Special K Latent Sync (if you can do framerate=Hz at 50% GPU)
360Hz is lower lag, but 100fps 100Hz DyAc+ looks better in "RTX ON" + "DLSS 3.0" solo games
Yes, 360fps 360Hz is better, but you can't always get 360fps sadly. That's a pain; especially because in fancy solo games, an "RTX ON" + "CRT motion quality" requires you to intentionally lower your refresh rate, for RTX ON to look like CRT motion clarity.
DyAc+ can strobe as low as 100Hz, and you can use an RTX 4000 series with DLSS 3.0 to get 100fps raytraced content in some games like Cyberpunk 2077 -- or other graphically intensive games that you would normally play solo.
If you want DyAc+ to look like a CRT at lower frame rates
YOU MUST LOWER REFRESH RATE OR IT WONT LOOK LIKE A PROPER CRT.
The RTX and DLSS goodness in astoundingly beautiful solo games often adds ~50-100ms lag anyway, and the lag difference of 100Hz vs 360Hz is less than a 10ms difference (Math: Not all pixels refresh at the same time,
www.blurbusters.com/scanout -- so the screen center scanout halftime of 100Hz is 0.5/100sec = 5ms, and screen center scanout halftime of 0.5/360sec = 1.4ms. The difference of 100Hz DyAc+ versus 360Hz+ DyAc+ is (5ms-1.4ms) = 3.6ms latency difference. That is only a tiny lag increase for a
massive CRT motion clarity improvement!, and you should intentionally lower your refresh rate to match your frame rate, to improve CRT motion clarity, for your solo games where latency is not important.
Bring the refresh rate closer to your real-world-frame rate (Very Important!). There can be more flicker, which is a problem if you are flicker sensitive, but if you loved CRTs back in the day, then you should know that framerate=Hz becomes "CRT god mode", and you sometimes have to lower refresh rate to match frame rate.
It's necessary to improve quality by lowering refresh rate to properly simulate a 100Hz or 120Hz or 144Hz CRT tube, you're doing it wrong if you're CRT-motion-clarity priority over input latency. (Yes, 360Hz is lower lag, but why use 360Hz if you're playing Cyberpunk 2077 with DLSS 3.0? Lag ain't as important as CS:GO or other esports situations, if you are just enjoying a plain solo game. So, fix your settings it so Cyberpunk looks like a proper CRT. Otherwise you're incorrectly simulating a CRT)
DyAc+ supports custom Hz in ~0.001 Hz increments from 100.000 Hz through 360.000 Hz, via Custom Resolution in NVIDIA Control Panel, or via
www.monitortests.com ToastyX (for AMD and Intel).
