What do you think is the lowest acceptable refresh rate to make typing feel smooth? If you're a 60wpm typer, that'd be 60hz to display every character as you type it, might feel disjointed otherwise.
- IceyEC 6y ago60 wpm == 1 hz
- sangnoir 6y ago1 hz per word - but people type a character at a time. A word per second isn't great.
- simonbarker87 6y agoI guess the letter rate is more important with this than the word rate, I would say 0.5 seconds would be the low end of reasonable (so 2 hz), if it could get to maybe 5-10hz that would be super
- ncmncm 6y agoThis screen is a different kind than you are used to. The pixels actually wear out after a remarkably small number of changes (~10k). So "60Hz" doesn't mean much. It can update the small number of pixels you actually want changed pretty quickly, but it takes a noticeable fraction of a second. The key is changing only those and leaving all the rest the hell alone. Running Gnome on it is possible. But you do not want to.
