> Tbh I don't understand this, I thought refresh rate and response time were totally independent, but 1/0.01667 = 60. They are, and I also feel like people don't really understand what response time means: It's the time for the pixel to transition from one color to another. More precisely, it's the time to transfer some percentage of the way to the second color. Since the pixel tends to asymptotically approach the destination color, so you get more than 50% of the transition when 50% of the "response time" has passed. You can have a 240 Hz refresh rate with a 16ms response time. It just means that the pixel won't fully transition to the destination color before it is updated again. So black-white-black-white would look more like black-grey-darkGrey-lightGrey. Another thing is that if you show people (humans) alternating black and white frames at 240Hz, it's going to look grey anyway.
