As an owner of a 144Hz screen, I disagree. 144 FPS is quite the experience, and it's fairly noticable for me when a game runs at only 60.

I didn't say that rates faster than 60 FPS wouldn't be noticeable. I said that there's no practical reason to insist on such. 60 FPS is already smooth enough that it's near impossible to discern individual frames. I think that if the OP decided against playing the game for no other reason than it having a 60 FPS cap (which it doesn't have), then they are being both vain and unfair to the game.

I bought a 144hz monitor for a reason - to have the opportunity to play up to 144 FPS without screen tearing. The human eye cannot capture each individual frame above 60 FPS from what I gather, however, playing at 144 FPS in comparison to 60 FPS is night and day.

I have played 10mins or so of SOMA at my friends house and I have bought the game regardless of the optimisation. Just thought I'd drop that one in Big Grin

It has a refresh rate option in the settings which can be set to 144, but it has never done anything in my experience. I tested it in the early days but I just couldn't get it to output 144 (or anything above 60 for that matter). I made sure V-sync was off as well, tinkered with configs etc. IIRC the FPS was higher, it just didn't push it. I don't know if there are enough 144 Hz users to know if this is a common issue or not, and if someone have gotten it to work at all.

Yes, that option does not have any effect with G-Sync/V-Sync on or off.
