Anyone who claims 30fps is unplayable/garbage is just being a framerate snob. Games are perfectly playable on consoles with a 30fps cap, and hell, you can swing lower and still get a playable experience depending on the type of game. I have one custom mission in Arma 3 that used to chug at 15-20fps on my old rig and it was still perfectly playable because the game doesn't require lighting-fast response times.

Technically, if the train was moving fast and the game was doing motion blur, parts would look different.

TIL there are more mountains at a higher frame rate
GunGunTrio
I honestly don't care about the pc/console war crap. Just go with what you prefer and enjoy.

The difference is slight OK, but you should see that frame at 140FPS! Blows your mind :-)

Internet has ruined me just spent more time than I’d like admit looking for something hidden in the picture
VirtusTenebrae
Ignoring these are still images, they're not the same photo... literally. Compare the mountains in the top left. Slightly different angle.
CascadianTwilight
Man, this is stupid. I love it.

Anything with fast action matters but it doesn't mean a game can't be enjoyed at a lower frame rate. Shit I played Crysis on a Pentium 4.
DrLOAC
So did I. P4 3.2GHZ 2GB of ram and an AGP ATI 1950Pro 512MB. Turn enough stuff down and it would run.

Sorry i have 144fps, but i can have 300 If i want

This image is so small, how are we supposed to even tell the difference? This is dumb.

With a decent paying job I am still able to upgrade my PC on occasion while still building my savings. Consoles & PCs both have pros/cons

I really DGAF about PC vs consoles. But any devs fucking up a control scheme "because consoles" can get assfucked in hell. Right, Bethesda?

PC "master race" are by far the most annoying platform warriors.

Man I got shit on by console gamers earlier while playing COD MW with it being cross-platform because I was on PC. Both sides are annoying

Lol 60fps. 144+ is how we see the world now.
Dhatudhatu
High FPS is nice and all, but 300 FPS on 60Hz monitor is a different experience altogether vs. 300 FPS on a 240Hz monitor. You get lower 1/2
NovaZek
Fps is bound to the maximum Hz value. If you have a monitor with 60hz but your rig can put out 166fps, you will regardlessly see only 60fps.
Dhatudhatu
Well yes nobody has negated that. But tests on this issue shows less input lag with say 300 fps on 60Hz vs. 60 on 60Hz. Check Linus test@YT.
Dhatudhatu
input lag with 300/60 than say 60/60, but the visual experience will still feel like 60Hz. Combine refresh rate/frame rate for best results.
RevNight
This man speaks the truth. 60fps is for peasants

A stable rate is preferred. The jumps between fps is what makes it noticeable.
BenSnow97
Even if it's stable 30fps is just garbage. 60 is nice, but personally I find the jump from 60 to 75 very noticeable
SushiJaguar
Stable 30FPS isn't garbage, it's just that the PS4 and Xbox One never stayed at a stable 30FPS. Take Bloodborne for example, that chugs.

KinkoTheGoblin
personally i don't ming 30 fps for most games.
matthew2401360
If it isn't created to run natively at (at least) 60FPS, then it will look like trash at 60FPS. Games are good, movies/tv is not.
aTokenOfMyExtreme
I only play ps3 cause I don't game that much and don't want to buy a ps4 til I'm out of school. I had no idea games get up to 200 fps. Wtf
jbcars4life
Might as well wait for the PS5. You'll be able to keep playing your PS3 games on it anyway.
KrillinLikeAVillan
Asus just released a 360 fps monitor, that's a stupid amount of frames.
Dhatudhatu
No, they did not. They released a 360Hz monitor. Refresh rate and frame rate are two different things altogether. You don't get extra 1/2
VitaminJay
However the motion is buttery smoothe...
Dhatudhatu
I have a 240Hz monitor and some games don't give me more than 60fps, while other games again give me 300fps, or 400fps, it all just depends.
Dhatudhatu
frames from a monitor. You get frames due to CPU/RAM/GPU & what the game supports. If your HW is good enough, you can get high fps. 2/2
KrillinLikeAVillan
I know that very well, at no point did i say that this monitor will magically give you a higher frame rate.
Dhatudhatu
You said "360 fps monitor" though & referred to it being a lot of frames. That's the problem with what you said. FPS/Hz = 2 different things
KrillinLikeAVillan
The monitor is capable of displaying 360 frames per second so it's just petty semantics.
KrillinLikeAVillan
I did that because the person i replied to didn't seem that familiar with pc monitors.

she just seems like a bitch. but she is an actor so I guess that means she's doing her job

That's quite the reply. That attitude must get you a lot of girlfriends.

I personally wouldn't hit her, she just seems like a huge bitch all. like if someone laid into her, I'd probably understand

I'm sure it's just the role from whatever this is

yeah, probably right. guess that just means she's good at what she does.

You can tell all that from a 1 second gif. You seem like a massive dick from your 140 character comment

GreaseMonkeyOfLove
Or the ads on some VHS movies that compared DVD vs VHS picture quality...
TheHonestPenguin
Video speaker reviews are great, they put in a sound test and 1) their mic distorts the sounds 2) the audience probably has bad speakers...

Some monitors will compare hz with pictures, and the one with lower hz will be all blurry lol

https://www.testufo.com/framerates#count=3&background=none&pps=960 it's not the worst way to illustrate it tbf

keebs63
Funny to see but there's really no other way they can try to show it. Even if it was a video, unless you have high refresh you won't see it
Ashokaaa
Slow down the other vid to 30fps or like 22 so it is slightly stuttering
SealOfThePump
Same same.
keebs63
These pictures are made for people who have no clue and would probably be more confused by that. Plus more would look at a picture than 1/2
HeavenOrHellLetsRock
In fairness, the lower the refresh the more you see motion blur
Neywiny
"Wow those colours look really good... Oh wait if I already have those amazing colours what's the benefit?"

Smoothyness.. get a system and video card that can push 240+fps get a 240hz monitor. Enjoy dat buttery smoothness..
Neywiny
I do photo editing and 3d animation and stuff so opted for 4k for my gtx 1080. May add another monitor, I can't find one that fits my setup

kirmokum
the lack of motion blur hurts my eyeballs.
GingerLaird
This is a much better example. If someone has to post why 60fps doesn't make a difference, then they better post a friggin' gif about it.
LurkingAtTheOffice
Oh god, I've been playing too many games on 120fps that the 60fps looks stuttery still. Fml
Xenarion
Last time I saw this gif it was running at 30fps. This time, it's running at 50fps. Progress, but still not true.

You cant tell the difference in frame rate over 33ish? But you can see the effects of it.

200 fps if you wanna feel like you're high.

Exactly.

I'm not a gamer but that 60 is painful. It's like watching a bad pan in a movie when everything goes unrecognizably fuzzy.

It's just supposed to show the difference.. that's the point..
WickedSludge
May I recommend an eye doctor?

I need one with 144 and 240hz as well, after having such displays 60 simply isn't playable anymore

VresiBerba
I got one of those screens and I have had nothing but trouble, most notably from Bethesda games that goes completely out of whack at 144Hz
Jonataurus
That's the games fault. Almost all games support higher fps.
VresiBerba
I know it is. But it doesn't matter because it's still a problem that together with malfunctioning g/free-sync compatibility is a mess.
GuyWithDog
Agreed. No idea how you get down votes
lronMaiden
Expensive and still quite rare. Also that as a gif would do little good for general users.
Ironbunny
Idk about rare, the aisles are full of them at places like microcenter and Fry's. A little more expensive sure but not absurdly so.
lronMaiden
Rare as lot of people not having one
Ironbunny
For shooters I agree. Not necessary for civ or single player rpg stuff so much

Well I mean you want that mouse pointer to be smooth.

30 FPS is tolerable, if not great, and 60 FPS is nice. For me, I can tolerate one or the other, I just hate when it jumps around or drops.

SaphirasSexDoll
But don't our eyes naturally see in 30?
edward8767
Kiwi86
Real answer without shaming you; no. Our eyes work by continuously taking in light, which is then processed by the brain. Frame rate (1/?)
Kiwi86
In media refers to still images shown one after another (think a flip book) to simulate motion. Fluidity can be increased through (2/?)
Kiwi86
Various ways, such as blur of a higher frame rate. Our eyes don't have a static, absolute limit they can see because whether we notice (3/?)
Kiwi86
A change can itself be impacted by the factors. Imagine watching a completely Black screen in room absent of light, and for 1/200th (4/?)
