Yeah I'm unemployed right now so I'm pretty poor. My PC was built in 2015 and I'm running Linux on it and the Linux distribution I'm using is Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, I'm pretty sure my PC is only capable of outputting 60Hz, I mean I'll double check but I'm pretty sure my PC can only output 60Hz.Chief Blur Buster wrote: ↑28 Oct 2026, 20:40I am quite pleased to see televisions supporting 240Hz and up nowadays on sizes as big as 75 inch!John2 wrote: ↑26 Oct 2026, 16:07Hey I now have a 2025 65 inch TCL Q77K TV, it's got a native 144Hz panel and can do 120Hz VRR, in fact, it can do 1080p at 288Hz with VRR so if game devs ever wanted to make an Xbox game that could do 1080p and have it do 288fps my TV could literally show 288fps natively with VRR, but of course no one will do that. I have submitted feedback to Microsoft asking them to retroactively make Halo Infinite capable of doing 288 frames per second @ 1080p but they're not gonna do it of course but a man can dream.
The 240 Hz TestUFO Demo Blitz
Here's more education for you, set your TV to 240 Hz or 288 Hz 1080p from your computer connected to the TCL Q77K.
PREREQUISITE:
1. Have at least 240Hz. The below is about 10x more educational at 240Hz than 60 to 120Hz.
2. Have good frame pacing. Verify TV and PC is framepacing smoothly without frequent jitters/framedrops at www.testufo.com/animation-time-graph (look for erratic flickers in the Frame Skipping Indicator at the right edge). Fix any problems until framepacing is smooth.
FUN EDUCATIONAL DEMOS:
1. www.testufo.com ... Double frame rate will have half motion blur (until LCD GtG throttle differences, when GtG is a large % of refreshtime)
2. www.testufo.com/mousearrow ... The stroboscopic stepping effect
3. www.testufo.com/blackframes ... The black frame insertion for variable persistence
4. www.testufo.com/blurbusterslaw ... Motion at twice the frame rate at twice the speed (assuming GtG=0) will have the same display motion blur.
5. www.testufo.com/crt ... Turn your TV into a 60Hz or 72Hz CRT tube automatically in TestUFO for 75% blur reduction using electron beam simulation!
These are useful educational animations to teach yourself refresh rate physics.
I hope to be back to work within 6 months but even then I need to save up money for a car so it could be a year or more before I finally have a new modern computer with Windows 11 capable of outputting a 240Hz signal.
I need to at least get a Windows 11 laptop but like I said I need to go back to work first.
