What is the refresh rate of this monitor? 60? 120?

Both are supported, however, in order to be able to use the 120hz refresh rate you have to use the DVI connection.

I set the monitor to 120 hz in Nvidia Control Panel. It reports that the monitor is running at 120 hz in 2D mode.

120.....but keep in mind your video card has to support 120. MOST video cards do not support 120 on hdmi, but newer ones will.

How I understand it is that the 120hz refresh rate is an internal feature. The television signal you receive only comes into your TV at 60hz, but your television can internally smooth it out to 120hz. So, your display is only going to show what is coming into the tv, which is 720p, 60hz, 1080i, 60hz, etc.

Samsung uses their own "Rating" for their TVs. This TV is a Samsung 120 CMR which translates roughly to 60Hz. I believe someone at Amazon saw 120 and assumed it was Hz not CMR

US 60hz... wait maybe not. I will have to go home and check it out. I'll get back to you.

Refresh Rate is 60 HZ. The following is from a CNET review: The main benefit imparted by a 120Hz refresh rate is the ability to introduce smoothing (dejudder) in the image. If you don't care about adding smoothing -- we think it creates a distasteful, artificial look -- then you'll probably be less interested in 120Hz. The EH6000's higher refresh rate also leads to an improvement in motion resolution, but this benefit is quite difficult for most viewers to discern. Note that Samsung's literature uses the term "Clear Motion Rate" instead of panel refresh rate, and assigns higher "CMR" numbers to each TV (240 for the EH6000 and 120 for the EH5300), but that's basically marketing bunk.

It's a monitor not a HDTV. There is no refresh rate. Response time is 5ms(GTG), which is somewhat equal to 240HZ refresh rate.

Is this the monitor I want to get for fact paced FPS games? Is it a 60 or 75 MHz monitor? I run a Nvdia gtx960 card.

One is 120hz and the other is 240hz...this is the refresh rate..in other words the higher the number the faster. If a car speeds by or someone turns their head quickly there may or may not be a "ghost". I have the 6100 with 120hz and it's perfect. Juat make sure to get a high speed HDMI cable. the cable Amazon recommends is fine. Very happy with the tv.

I am currently using 2560 x 1080 at 60Hz. Monitor is capable of 75Hz at other resolutions.

John, while I don't own this particular model (I bought a different model for my son), in looking up the specs, it appears that this model has a 60Hz refresh rate.

It is 60hz. I can certainly understand your confusion. Please, read the rest of the responses for more info. SonyStyle was very disappointly and cleverly not very clear about this feature in this tv, which is unfortunate for a company of its stature.

Display settings assuming your graphics card can handle 144hz ...... if your using integrated graphics you most likely will only have 120hz option.

It depends how one defines the refresh rate. My understanding is the refresh rate is technically 60 Hz, but Toshiba employs their "ClearScan" back lighting technology to raise the effective rate to 120 Hz. An explanation of how this works can be found on Toshiba's forum at http://forums.toshiba.com/t5/Televisions-Knowledge-Base/TOSHIBA-ClearScan/ta-p/361268. I have the 32 inch and the 23 inch versions of this product and, in my opinion, the picture is great and handles fast-moving action, such as sports, very well.

Screen "refresh rate" refers to how many times the horizontal lines on the display are rendered or "drawn" in one second. Though a higher rate does not guarantee that no motion blur will occur, it certainly helps. I own both the H5500 and the 120 Hz H6350, and the H6350 looks MUCH better.

To answer your first question, if you read closely on their site the 120 rate is referred to as the "Clear Motion Rate". This is not the refresh rate you're referring to. The software in the tv modifies the picture (not sure of the technical details) and simulates a 120 rate. This is my understanding - I read an article on CNET that described this in more detail. Hope that helps some...

The Samsung that I purchased has the 120HZ refresh rate. I can take a picture of the box that it was shipped in if you like.

It really depends. Nowadays, there are TV manufacturers which releases 120Hz TV. Means that the refresh rate is double compared to the 60Hz. The real difference or he most noticeable between the two is when watching fast action like sports or car racing on HD. Watching non-HD broadcast, under 60Hz images are just the same with 120Hz. Bottomline depending on your eyes/brain that can handle images that will look much better, maybe worse or basically no difference at all. Hope this helps. -Ely
