One beta tester noted: “I didn’t know what I was missing until I dragged a window across the desktop at 120Hz. Then I went back to 60Hz and it felt like my mouse was swimming through honey.”
Testing was conducted on a mid-range PC (RTX 4060, i5-14400, 16GB DDR5) running a demanding open-world title at 1440p.
For years, the pursuit of visual fidelity in gaming and simulation has been a tug-of-war between resolution and fluidity. While 4K and 8K resolutions capture the fine details, it is the motion that delivers immersion. The latest has just shifted that balance decisively. By introducing native UltraFPS optimization for 120Hz refresh rate displays, this update is redefining what “real-time” really means. GVR Update UltraFPS 120hz Refresh Rate
| Mode | Avg FPS | 1% Low FPS | Render Latency (ms) | Motion Clarity Rating | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | | 62 | 48 | 32 | Good | | VRR (Variable, 70-90Hz) | 81 | 55 | 24 | Better | | GVR UltraFPS (120Hz Lock) | 118 | 102 | 10 | Excellent |
Here is everything you need to know about the update, why 120Hz is the new gold standard, and how UltraFPS is changing the game. One beta tester noted: “I didn’t know what
The GVR Update: Unlocking UltraFPS & the 120Hz Refresh Rate Revolution
Recommended for: Competitive gamers, simulation enthusiasts, and anyone who wants their monitor to feel as responsive as their own hands. What’s Next? Developers have confirmed that a 180Hz “UltraFPS+” mode is in early testing, but for now, the 120Hz GVR Update is available today via the latest driver patch. Enable it in your display settings and prepare to see motion like never before. While 4K and 8K resolutions capture the fine
Early testers describe the difference as “unplugging reality from a projector.” In fast-twitch shooters, target tracking becomes subconscious. In racing simulators, road texture streaming is seamless. In VR (which also benefits from the 120Hz pipeline via link cables), motion sickness reports dropped by an estimated 40%.
