In a surprising twist at Gamescom, high refresh rate gaming monitors became the main attraction, pushing my expectations aside. Initially, I anticipated features on handheld devices or keyboards, but the flood of high-refresh-rate displays shifted my focus.
At an Asus pre-games event, the crowd buzzed over a new OLED technology monitor, but my attention was entirely captured by a remarkable 610 Hz TN panel. This model is said to be the fastest of its kind, featuring what Asus calls a “Super TN panel.” The panel reportedly surpasses standard TN panels in visual performance.

I have fond memories of playing games like Counter-Strike and other fast-paced shooters. Using a monitor like this 610 Hz would have been life-changing compared to my previous experience of 120 Hz and 144 Hz.
