A faster refresh rate is always “better” for the human eye, but you’ll need higher and higher panel brightness to have a measurable reaction time difference.

But hitting really high refresh rates requires too many other compromises on image quality, so I won’t personally be seeking out anything more than a 120hz display for the time being.
