360Hz Refresh Rate Test

Check whether your display is really running at 360Hz, and see what 360Hz means in frame time and smoothness.

A 360Hz display refreshes 360 times per second, showing a new frame every 2.78 ms, 6.0× as often as a 60Hz screen.

Is 360Hz good?

Yes, for competitive play, where every millisecond of display delay matters. To benefit, your games need to run at or near 360 FPS.

You'll find 360Hz on high-end esports monitors.

Getting a steady 360Hz

  1. Choose 360Hz in your operating system's display settings; many monitors ship set to 60Hz.
  2. Use a cable and port with enough bandwidth. High refresh rates at high resolutions usually need DisplayPort or HDMI 2.1.
  3. In games, aim for at least 360 FPS, or turn on G-Sync/FreeSync so lower frame rates still look smooth.
  4. Run the test above: the refresh rate box should read 360 Hz with low jitter.

Frequently asked questions

What is the frame time at 360Hz?

At 360Hz a new frame appears every 2.78 ms (1000 ÷ 360).

Is 360Hz good for gaming?

Yes, for competitive play, where every millisecond of display delay matters. To benefit, your games need to run at or near 360 FPS.

How many FPS do I need for 360Hz?

To use every refresh, your game should render at least 360 frames per second. Below that, the monitor shows some frames twice; variable refresh rate (G-Sync or FreeSync) keeps that smooth.

How do I check if my monitor is running at 360Hz?

Run the test on this page: the "Refresh rate" box shows the rate your display is actually using. If it reads lower than 360Hz, select 360Hz in your display settings and check that your cable supports it.
