Understanding Your Test Results
🎯 Refresh Rate Analysis
Your monitor's refresh rate determines how many times per second the display updates. Our advanced testing uses three detection methods:
- Browser API Detection: Queries system-reported refresh rates
- Frame Timing Analysis: Measures actual frame delivery intervals
- Animation Sampling: Uses requestAnimationFrame for precise timing
The tool takes 120+ samples and uses statistical analysis to determine the most accurate refresh rate measurement.
⚡ Frame Time Consistency
Frame time consistency measures how evenly frames are delivered. Perfect consistency means:
- Each frame takes exactly the same time to render
- No stuttering or micro-stutter in animations
- Smooth motion without visual artifacts
- Optimal gaming and viewing experience
Our consistency score rates from 0-100%, with 95%+ considered excellent for professional use.
🎮 Input Latency Testing
Input latency is the total delay from input to visual response. Our test measures:
- Display Latency: Time for pixels to change state
- Processing Delay: Graphics pipeline latency
- System Latency: Overall input-to-photon delay
Lower latency provides better responsiveness, especially crucial for competitive gaming.
📊 Performance Benchmarks
Our quality indicators are based on professional testing standards:
- Excellent (90-100%): Professional gaming grade, 144Hz+, <5ms latency
- Good (70-89%): Enthusiast grade, 75Hz+, <10ms latency
- Average (50-69%): Standard use, 60Hz, <20ms latency
- Poor (<50%): May need hardware upgrade or optimization
