When you regularly start playing at >120hz you definitely notice when stuff is playing at lower than 60hz

Like it sounds snobby but I can’t play stuff at lower than 100hz ish otherwise I somehow get motion sick from it

You would honestly probably be fine after a short while with lower frame rates. Guaranteed you used to game at those slower frame/refresh rates and never knew better.

I absolutely agree there's still benefit to be had above 60, but 60 is still mostly fine. Unless I guess all you do is ultra competitive gaming where twitch reactions are necessary.
