Does it really matter past 200 Hz?
For hardcore gaming, absolutely IMO. If you want to approach CRT-level motion clarity you need to get closer to 1000hz.

comparison of higher framerates up to 540hz: https://0x0.st/8FXU.png
The beam simulation shader recommends at least 240hz but the preferred speed is 480 or as high as possible.
Interesting, learned something new.
I was just going to ask the same question. I like that tech companies are pushing but I also wonder how far is to far.
