Tech has always been about pushing boundaries. And that’s not a bad thing
Screen technologies for a lot of things has gotten to the point where your eyes literally can’t tell the difference, but sure, dump money into a placebo.
I agree that 1000hz is ridiculous, I have a 165hz monitor and can’t tell the difference past 120 or so. But that’s not really the point…this will never be a mainstream product but the technology may lead to useful advancements in the future
That is the point, most people don’t do research and see “ahh a bigger number, it must be better!”. 1Khz refresh rate may be a niche thing now but in two years every company will be pushing something similar.
