  The jump from 60 to 100 fps (even on 60Hz monitors) really does make a difference. I haven't experienced playing on 120/144Hz, but I guess it would be even better. Pros demands 300+ fps on top championships (played on 120/144Hz monitors). For me it's more on the confidence that I would not have frame drops (smoke graphics on CS:GO is bad, I drop from 90ish fps to 30-45 fps on the edges of the smoke), perceived smoothness, and input lag. The actual game itself (timeline on the servers) is only played at 64-ticks (64Hz) online or 120-ticks (120Hz) on select community servers and competitive matches.

  > I can't even imagine the leaps in skill I'd have to make before the difference between 50fps and 150fps had any impact on my performance Keep in mind fps are normally given in averages. You can go up to a wall and have nothing on screen and get an insane FPS or you can back out and take in all of the area with max view distance and see a lower FPS. Add in players/objects/explosions etc and your FPS dips and dives. Having an average of 50FPS means you likely ARE going to notice it at certain dips while at 150 average would be much less likely to get a perceivable fps dip
