We're benchmarking NVIDIA's Reflex Latency Analyzer, Reflex Low Latency Mode, and 360Hz display with integrated latency tools. NVIDIA claims this will reduce system latency.

NVIDIA has a few places it's applying the word "Reflex," including its Reflex Latency Analyzer (akin to LDAT, in some ways) and Reflex Low Latency Mode. Some of this follows-up previous NVIDIA control panel features designed to reduce total system latency, while other aspects are hardware features that require special monitors and mice to leverage -- but which allow tuning, especially of game settings, at a deeper level. One of these tools is meant for heavily loaded GPU scenarios, the other is meant for lightly loaded scenarios, and we have different opinions of the usefulness or "gimmickery" of each. In this benchmark and review of NVIDIA's Reflex and RLA, we'll be looking at the Dell (Alienware) AW2521H 360Hz monitor as a test vehicle. Testing includes an RTX 3080 GPU, but we have other tests discussed within the content.

The Dell AW2521H 360Hz display will eventually be here on Amazon: https://geni.us/zwJd
