Scannout time is 1000 divided by Hz

390Hz scannout is 2.56ms
240Hz scannout is 4.16ms

The UT4 server I play on is locked at 250fps. While the motion stutter is noticeable due to the fps < hz, the difference felt, in my experience, justifies the purchase. From the choice of monitors I've came from going from the Asus PGQNR to this Acer was a bigger difference than the 240 to the 360. And I'm pushing fps with a 5800x + 3080Ti + 1:1 IF 1866/3733 with tight timings.
I've been playing a lot on warzone lately and the framerate I can never keep it at 250fps, I go around 200 with oscillations ranging from 160 to 230, do you think I can still have benefits with acer at 390hz?

Are there other areas with your rig that you're considering upgrading vs this monitor?
if the prices go down I would go from my 2080ti to the 3090 but even then I am very far from 400fps, currently on warzone the best systems with 5950x and 3090 never exceed 250fps.

I don’t think you’d have a problem with this one. If you adjust the brightness and contrast you can make it extremely dark.

Brightness is locked on BFI though
