  2. Refresh rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refresh_rate

    However, the refresh rate still determines the highest frame rate that can be displayed, and despite there being no actual blanking of the screen, the vertical blanking interval is still a period in each refresh cycle when the screen is not being updated, during which the image data in the host system's frame buffer can be updated.

  3. Flicker (screen) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flicker_(screen)

    A refresh rate of 60 Hz on most screens will produce a visible "flickering" effect. Most people find that refresh rates of 70–90 Hz and above enable flicker-free viewing on CRTs. Use of refresh rates above 120 Hz is uncommon, as they provide little noticeable flicker reduction and limit available resolution.

  4. Variable refresh rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_refresh_rate

    On displays with a fixed refresh rate, a frame can only be shown on the screen at specific intervals, evenly spaced apart. If a new frame is not ready when that interval arrives, then the old frame is held on screen until the next interval (stutter) or a mixture of the old frame and the completed part of the new frame is shown ().

  5. Flicker-free - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flicker-free

    Flicker-free is a term given to video displays, primarily cathode ray tubes, operating at a high refresh rate to reduce or eliminate the perception of screen flicker.For televisions, this involves operating at a 100 Hz or 120 Hz hertz field rate to eliminate flicker, compared to standard televisions that operate at 50 Hz (PAL, SÉCAM systems) or 60 Hz (), most simply done by displaying each ...

  6. Flicker fusion threshold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flicker_fusion_threshold

    Some systems could increase refresh rate to higher values such as 72, 75, 100, or 120 Hz to ease this problem, though even if the faster refresh is an integer multiple of the source material framerate to eliminate judder, without higher framerate source material this causes the perception of duplicate images.

  7. Interlaced video - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interlaced_video

    For a fixed bandwidth, interlace provides a video signal with twice the display refresh rate for a given line count (versus progressive scan video at a similar frame rate—for instance 1080i at 60 half-frames per second, vs. 1080p at 30 full frames per second). The higher refresh rate improves the appearance of an object in motion, because it ...

  8. Frame rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frame_rate

    In these contexts, frame rate may be used interchangeably with frame frequency and refresh rate, which are expressed in hertz. Additionally, in the context of computer graphics performance, FPS is the rate at which a system, particularly a GPU , is able to generate frames, and refresh rate is the frequency at which a display shows completed ...

  9. Display lag - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Display_lag

    Nevertheless, this is almost identical to the use of casual stopwatches on two monitors using a "clone view" monitor setup as it does not care about the missing synchronisation between the composite video signal and the display of the laptop's screen or the display lag of that screen or the detail that the vertical screen refresh of the two ...
