refresh rate
The maximum number of times per second that a CRT monitor can redraw an image. The refresh rate, expressed in hertz (Hz), is determined by the computer's video card. The higher the refresh rate, the easier the monitor is to view; rates lower than 75Hz can produce irritating screen flicker.
