Is this genuine 81 Hz? It is displaying so I know but still, I always thought it was a hardware thing..

And what is the trade off? Will it generate more heat or something?

Can I try this on my laptop's inbuilt display? Its 60Hz, but the internals are core i7, gtx10 6o, etc.

The tradeoff is display will run at lower bit depth. Atleast thats the case for me (LG27UD68P). Unsure if that Acer panel supports full bit depth.
