I only play single player campaings exclusively, I only buy games based on the campaign, I never play multiplayer, not one.

Does high framerate really make for better gameplay in a campaign? Is 120fps noticable over 60?

I play on 60Hz now at ultra. Is 120fps Cyberpunk really a better experience than 60fps Cyberpunk?

I thought it was something like this.

Personally I wouldnt recommend it due to the massive price difference between 4k 60 and 4k 144, as I said it is not something you notice unless you already play at 144fps which makes going back to 60 a bad experience. It is not something that results in a significantly better experience in that sense, sure playing at 144 is nice, but it is not something you notice as much as having better graphics (again, this is subjective, I personally have an 144hz monitor but I do play a lot of multiplayer games, and even then sometimes I play at 60 fps if it means significantly better graphics on single player games)

The best possible thing you could do is go to a hardware store that has monitors on display or ask if you can try it and see for yourself the difference and if its worth it, but as an abstract idea without knowing you personally I would recommend going for a 60 hz monitor, especially since you could allocate that difference in money to other parts of your build or peripherals.

And even if you were to decide to play multiplayer, believe me the difference is response timing is not that big and once you get accustomed to it your brain kind of gets used and starts predicting things geared towards that framerate, neglecting some of the advantage of higher framerates, I believe this idea was on a Linus Tech Tips video a few years back they did with Shroud, dont know how true it was but its out there if you are interested.

I already have the build that I want, I'm not building anything for years, except a video card that does 4K. In 2 years I'll look at a 4K graphics card and then a screen to match.

I despise multiplayer because I want to play one game for 3 hours and continues progress through the game over the course of those 3 hours and never play a speific area twice.

The only stuff like capture the flag or deathmatch i say is trash garbage recycling a game every 15 minutes. Or CS:GO terrorist vs anti-terrorist, is the exact same game played over and over and over in a different place. Multiplayer is a constant repeat cycle, I find it pointless, a waste of time.

I have no interest in trying to beat other people, I play for the entertainment value and enjoy the characters and writing.
