Title: FPS Capped?
Post by: -Diesel.iNv- on Monday, July 22, 2013, 16:38:12 PM
Not that its a problem, but my pc runs AA at 80-85 fps with max settings with a resolution of 1920x1080. If I move my settings to low and at a much smaller resolution my FPS does not change. I know I can push more FPS and was wondering if anyone had any ideas on how I could do it.

Vsync is not on btw.

i have a MSI 2gb 7870 OC GPU

Go to Control Panel > System and Security > See the name of this computer (System) >  Advanced System Settings > Click on Settings (performance)  > Click on ''adjust for best performance'' and then click ''apply''

VSync should be on and unless you have a 120hz monitor, anything above 60-75 is useless.

As Spanky said any more than 60-75 is not needed. You just want a consistent frame rate. If you go for more only way you will even know it is when you looking at your stat fps or whatever you use. I knew someone that was getting a high of 200 or so in 2.85 with windows xp but said he was getting video lag still. Come to find out his numbers were all over up and down causing it. Redid his settings to a more realistic number and boom video lag he thought was gone.

Unless you have a 120hz monitor going over 60 is completely useless. V sync should be on.

Nothing wrong with agreeing with someone else. If anything, it gives the person more reason to believe the post. :P

read this -> http://www.unrealnorth.com/forum.php?action=viewtopic&id=28957 scroll down to the last reply.
ArmyOps.ini - >
[Engine.LevelInfo]
MaxClientFrameRate=100.000000
in-game: netspeed 15000

btw: netspeed / 100 = Max FPS;
ex: if you have a 120hz monitor, netspeed 12000 -> MaxClientFrameRate=120.000000, again, read the link above.

I dont agree with it being useless to having your fps over your monitor refresh rate. I think it boils down to perception. Its always nice to have a bit of headroom so having more fps than what your monitor can output, can be beneficial for the purpose of when your fps dips, it may not go under your refresh rate. So you wont really notice the dip in fps as apposed if it is capped at 60hz. But some ppl experience excessive tearing when playing games at high fps with Vsync off, and others experience input lag with it on. So its just personal preference at the end of the day.

it's useless, monitor limits your fps, even with zillion fps you still will play it like 60(ur hz), with good pc you will have a stable 60fps, no drops, but on lower resolution you can set your monitor refresh rate to 75hz, that's what i was doing with my previous monitor.

250 FPS in COD 4 = advantage, high Jump, 250 fps on AA = no advantage of any kind.

120 fps in any game = relative advantage

120 hz monitor = absolute advantage, a much smoother experience (i already notice the difference between a 75hz monitor and a 60hz one). If you're not keen on space there are a few old great CRT that probably come cheap by now.
