Some people so used to very high refresh rates... seem like they're panicking when the framerate drops below 60 fps.

Nearly every gaming sub I used to go to, I see some of those complaint posts about framerate drops. Yeah, and I’m amazed watching them throw a lot of money constantly trying to keep themselves from drowning below 60fps.

    As someone with a 500hz oled, i panic under 120. 120 is playable, but i usually try to get at least 100 base with 500 after mfg. It’s butter smooth. Even 240hz looks bad after playing at 500.

  • If I’m going to play a game I want it to run well. I don’t want hitches, frame drops or other issues. I tolerated them when I ran on a budget laptop, because it was going to happen. I have a beast of a computer now and I’ll be fucked if it’s not hitting 120+ basically everywhere.

    I find those FPS laughable. They winch and bemoan when their rig can’t throws hundreds of frames per second on their screen. My nephew for example got to play for a while the switch 2 and Mario Kart World. When I asked him if what framerate he plays this game at (handheld mode) he was quite insistent that its 120 FPS… Yeah the switch 2 couldnt play that game in 120 fps at that time in handheld mode (I believe it still cant). Its all just marketing and self suggestion.

    We’re personally still fine with 30 fps (hell, most yt videos are shot in 24fps and old anime’s are 12fps) tho our laptop (a shitty cheapo MSI one before the ram crisis) bounces between 60 and 120fps and we just don’t care

    Personally Low FPS when consistent is perfectly good Examples being movie (23.9 something FPS) and Anime (anywhere from 24 down to 3 depending on budget scene and style) For games its a interactive medium so if you are not bang fucking on 33.333ms (30 FPS) or more preferable 10.0ms (100 FPS) it will feel so much worse than any static content that I don’t interact with
