Yeah, that was always weird. We all know it maxes out at 60fps

I bought a sex doll, but I keep it inflated 100% of the time and use it like a regular wife
It's fine for turn based games, visual novels... And that's it.
Anything action based feels much better and more responsive at 60fps (or more).

Interesting. I'm curious on how many people plays Quality mode VS performance mode. Normally i think performance is the best choice, at least most of the time.

Lock your tears to 30fps for a smoother experience.

Everything outside of Matrix tech demo runs at 60 fps on next gen consoles (PS5 / XSX) these days though, and Matrix tech demo isn't available on PC anyway.

- If you bought a new PSU, why are you using old cables?
- How long do you gotta wait on the RMA of the replacement board that was defective?

Reason why i'm building a pc once the 40 series/rdna 3 come out. Insurance policy against the sin that is 30fps.

Your POV is flawed because its based off a demo of game built using the Unreal Engine which has never been as fast as the frostbite game engine or ID Tech engine. Secondly, its just a demo and unreal engine 5 still has kinks to work out.

How/why is it even legal for PSU manufacturers to arbitrarily change their pin outs like this? There have to exist multiple scenarios where this causes fires, and it's absolutely not a reasonable expectation that a consumer should know a visually identical connector that fits into the same socket may potentially fry their $3000 box or burn down their house.

To give an example at my above post:
I can easily limit Rise of the Tomb Raider to 30 fps and I have enough GPU/CPU power to run it at locked 30 with no drops with perfect framepacing (RivaTunner limit, DX12 and borderless fullscreen and Anti-Lag on AMD GPUs).
Yet the game on PC still isn't responsive as the Xbox 360 port. I was blown away with how inexistent the input lag was on that port. Nixxes are magicians.

The 4090 due out next August will be three times as powerful as the 3090. Likely the 4060 will be at the 3090 level, so it won't be an issue assuming Nvidia doesn't skimp on vram again.

It's never about the eyes only, it's the overall gameplay smoothness and visual feedback that made 60FPS superior. I'm surprised people still don't get it.
I was playing Pathfinder with my work laptop recently and it can only muster 30FPS. Just edge panning the camera or clicking the character around was a bitch

Are you taking the piss here? Surely thats not true, the biggest jump was 900 to the 10-series and it wasn't like the 1060 remotely matched the 980ti in terms of performance.
I mean, I hope so but sounds like Nvidia pre-release graph-bollocks.

SOON they will get 30fps games until they drop PRO version. Every generation this happens.
Shit man, that sucks. Just tell yourself it's "cinematic". That's how most console kiddies cope!I fried my motherboard by using old PSU cables with a new psu and the replacement mobo is defective as well, having to resort to my xbox one x and playing forza in 30 fps someone please hold me
I remember idiots saying that about Virtua Fighter 2 back in the 90s. "Anymore than 30 is a gimmick, you can't see it anyway!". Mofo, I saw it. It was actually 60 fields per second, but it still made playing a fighting game at 30 fps unthinkable.

For now, wait until all the cross gen nonsense is over with. I suspect we will go back to 30fps with higher graphical fidelity as proper next gen ges start releasing.
I can't wait let me tell ya hwat

There was an article a few months back about it being 3x as powerful and using a multi chip or board deisgn.

Sega 60 FPS was sublime

The new standard on consoles is a 60 fps performance mode and a 30 fps quality mode in every game, with the occasional 120 fps mode in some games. I expect it'll stay that way in the years to come.

This is mainly because of the extra processing leeway granted by crossgen games. Sure theres some full on next gen gsmes that have it but I expect (or hope) 60fps games die off and we can finally get some wicked looking proper next gen graphical goodness soon.

Being on a video game enthusiast forum and reading how people ask for 60fps in games to die off makes my head spin.

Seriously. "Muh cinematic 30 fps" was never anything but pure cope for most people, but apparently some people really do prefer pretty slideshows to responsive gameplay.

Slideshow? That's some hyperbole. What part of this looks like slideshow ? Stable 30fps with good motion blur goes a long way (and yes, both these games have great motion blur)
I know how people feel about blodoborne fps but it's one of more responsive 30fps games. More responsive than uncharted 4 even.

even tho i have a 3070 i played half of kena bridges at 30 fps for fun at 5k resolution. game looked gorgeous at that res, i just wanted to experience it that way for a bit
while playing zelda breath of wild through CEMU, there was a point where 60 fps caused a boss to bug out. i reloaded the save with a 30 fps lock and beat the boss. i played 6 hrs at 30 fps like that bcoz i couldnt be bothered to reset the game then.
30 fps is fine and acceptable. its highly playable. specifically with a gamepad. i cannot bare 30 fps games with a keyboard though
i also played %20 30 of ac valhalla at 30 fps for fun and giggles (higher res, graphical stuff)

For your brain to adjust to the new refresh rate you need to have a brain in the first place.
