75Hz Test – Check Your Monitor Runs at 75Hz (13.33 ms Frame Time)

75Hz Refresh Rate Test

Check whether your display is really running at 75Hz, and see what 75Hz means in frame time and smoothness.

A 75Hz display refreshes 75 times per second, showing a new frame every 13.33 ms, 1.3× as often as a 60Hz screen.

75Hz in numbers

Refreshes per second	75
Time per frame	13.33 ms
Compared with 60Hz	1.25× as many frames, 3.33 ms less per frame
FPS needed to use every refresh	75
Half-rate V-Sync cap	37.5 FPS

Is 75Hz good?

Yes, as a modest step up from 60Hz. Scrolling and motion look noticeably smoother, though competitive players usually aim for 144Hz or more.

You'll find 75Hz on budget office and entry-level gaming monitors.

Getting a steady 75Hz

Choose 75Hz in your operating system's display settings; many monitors ship set to 60Hz.
Use a cable and port with enough bandwidth. High refresh rates at high resolutions usually need DisplayPort or HDMI 2.1.
In games, aim for at least 75 FPS, or turn on G-Sync/FreeSync so lower frame rates still look smooth.
Run the test above: the refresh rate box should read 75 Hz with low jitter.

Frequently asked questions

What is the frame time at 75Hz?

At 75Hz a new frame appears every 13.33 ms (1000 ÷ 75).

Is 75Hz good for gaming?

Yes, as a modest step up from 60Hz. Scrolling and motion look noticeably smoother, though competitive players usually aim for 144Hz or more.

How many FPS do I need for 75Hz?

To use every refresh, your game should render at least 75 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 75Hz?

Run the test on this page: the "Refresh rate" box shows the rate your display is actually using. If it reads lower than 75Hz, select 75Hz in your display settings and check that your cable supports it.
