Refresh Rate



Have you ever been working on your laptop or desktop computer and you feel like the screen resolution is not correct. Well there is a reason for that your Refresh Rate may not be set correctly. I know a lot of people are wondering what a Refresh Rate is at first I didn't know what it was either but after reading Chapter 3 I have a better idea. I am now going to example what the Refresh Rate is and show you the proper steps to changing the Refresh Rate on your laptop or desktop computer.




Refresh Rate:
This is the display rate for which your computer is renewing the images on it. The correct refresh rate will resolve the issues like screen flickering and any other display issues you may have with your monitor. The normal default refresh rate is done per second and is measured in Hertz. Let’s take my laptop for an example: My default Refresh Rate is 60 Hz this means that my image is being refreshed 60 times in one second. If you set your refresh rate too high it will make your screen unusable and you will normally get an error message stating that the refresh rate is not compatible with this monitor. So you have to make sure your set the correct refresh rate. Now I am going to show you how to change you refresh rate on your computer.

Changing Refresh Rate:
It is very easy to change your refresh rate on your computer. You just need to navigate to the display setting on your computer and then click your advance settings. This will bring up another box and on that box you should navigate to the monitor tab and there is where you can change your refresh rate.
