I was exploring the fps and refresh rate slider and I realized that when setting the framerate limiter to 25, the refresh rate was incorrectly set to 50Hz on the OLED version, when the 75 Hz setting would be a more appropriate setting, for the same reason 30 fps is at 90 Hz and not 60 Hz. Anyone else seeing the same behavior? Is there an explanation I’m missing here?

      The LCD screen can run anywhere from 20hz to 70hz if you unlock it with a script, it just starts getting more and more flickery below 35ish and the panel isn’t rated to run over 60 which is why Valve limited it to 40-60.

      This is not about VRR. I am talking fixed refresh rates.

      This is entirely possible because the display can perform at any refresh rate between 40 45 and 90. As to why 75 over 50, your second paragraph answers that.

      Edit: you can totally do 30 at 60, but it would be increasing stutter for missed syncs.

      Edit2: oled screen is 45-90 hz
