Refresh Rate Test

Verify whether your display is really running at the expected refresh mode by checking the frames your browser is actually rendering.

How to read the result

You are looking for the level where the reading settles, not one perfect frame number.

  • Around 60 FPS usually means a 60Hz mode is active.
  • Around 120, 144, 165, or 240 FPS suggests the expected high-refresh mode is active.
  • Slight variation is normal; a stable range near the target is what matters.
  • A hard cap far below expectation usually means a settings, cable, dock, or power-mode issue.

Common reasons high refresh fails

Most problems are configuration issues, not broken panels.

  • OS display settings still left at 60Hz
  • wrong cable, adapter, or port capability
  • dock limitations on laptops
  • GPU power-saving mode or battery restrictions
  • browser or app frame-rate caps

If panel quality is your concern rather than Hz, move to the Monitor Color Test or Dead Pixel Test.
