It’s expensive and not as game-agnostic as I’d like, but Nvidia’s G-Sync Pulsar is monitor tech that we should, at least, keep eyes on.

I think we’re pretty far past diminishing returns on almost everything but contrast/color reproduction. Are there actually people unsatisfied with modern 120+ Hz monitors enough to notice changes in response time or have we officially entered placebo nonsense territory?
