psyksjuk Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Here is a good video that shows the different rates. I agree that when watching something, it does not have to be more than 30 fps (Movies use 24 fps i think.) But when playing its different.

TheMcSame Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 (edited) Generally 60fps feels smoother. However, running the physics test on firestrike feels smoother at ~24 fps than a 30 fps game on console because it's a constant frame rate whereas a lot of console games have varying frame rates.

Kampret Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 60 FPS will be better than 30 FPS, IF it's stable in both terms of FPS and frame time.

MarshallRawR Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 There is actually a genuine difference. As for responsiveness, I can't tell (anymore), I used to play NES, PS and PS2 as my latest console, but seeing 30FPS on TV, from a couch, will not feel the same on a PC in front of a monitor. From far away, it will look smoother. I had a friend playing a game at about 70-80FPS on my PC, and from a spot away from him, it looked damn smooth. Of course, at 60FPS, no matter what, responsiveness will be better.

K.Walters Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 You don`t want 30. Trust me. It can be playable on 30, but you will experience a lot of BS. I play on my Xbox360, Install disc on flash drive and Play disc on HDD. Playing on a 100Hz TV. There is such a big input lag a hardcore PC master race gamer would go insane playing with that. Like you know when you go fast while weaving and dodging traffic you need to have a quick reaction time? With 30 you need the ability to predict the future and react faster than a normal person would, because there is like a 200-300ms input-lag. Of course if you are a casual who plays video games for about an hour once a week then you probably won`t see any problems and will be fine. But once you experience 120FPS on a 144Hz screen you will never be the same. After I got to play around on a 144Hz screen with 120 FPS, I want to get a 144Hz monitor asap. Huge difference if you know where and what to look at.

TheMcSame Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 ^^^^ You're comparing a monitor to a TV, it wasn't the FPS that was causing the input lag, TV's have all sorts of post processing BS which leads to high amounts of input lag whereas monitors don't have all that post processing stuff.
