So, what’s so special about a high refresh rate panel anyway? In a word, accuracy. That refresh rate all but ensures buttery-smooth rendering which cuts down on image and input latency. For fans of first-person shooters, it means a potential for a better kill ratio. And fighting game aficionados can get those complicated combos in a bit faster than the competition. Nvidia gave me a taste of the high refresh life at CES. Broken down into precision and reaction tests, I performed much better on the 360Hz panel. I still can’t explain the science behind it, but I can tell you the 360Hz panel made the 60Hz screen look slow and janky by comparison. Alienware is being pretty tight-lipped about any other changes. But we do know that both laptops will still feature Intel 10 Gen overclockable processors and Nvidia’s powerful RTX series GPUs. Either way, we expect each system to give the competition a run for their money when they launch.
