NL FPS limit?

My FPS will never go higher than 100 FPS. Is there an FPS limit or something of that nature. Just wondering. Thanks [:)].

Well, mine never goes above 60 for some reason.

yeah if im right it never goes above 98...but thats what im thinking...

Might be a performance thing, but idk. Just wondering.

It seems like most programs aren't designed to go higher than 100fps. If it won't go higher than 60, it's because you have vertical sync on (and you really need to change your refresh rate to 75 hz if you're using a CRT monitor, it flickers alot at 60 hz and is very bad on your eyes)

Of course, it doesn't really matter anyways, as long as your average framerate is descent enough.

the max in nl is 100. it is lower if your computer isnt as good.

If I'm right, from what I understand, the refresh rate on your monitor is automatically the highest amoutn of frames per second you can achieve, for example, at 70 Hz, a monitor refreshes 70 times a second, so if you get higher than that many frames a second in a game, it will still appear as 70 frames per second.

*chuckle*

So many idiots, only one thread...

you know what them bein idiots means? it means they spend their time on better things than comps

ha

It's some freakin' hilarious how they THINK they know so much about PCs. They probably have see-through cases too.

SMer, many people make a VERY good living working with computers. Alot of computer technicians do work for over 50 an hour.

If you can handle working with computers, NOT a bad job I dont think.

Actually, refresh rate is not linked to FPS. Refresh rate has to do with the image being shown on the monitor. You'll see your monitor's refresh rate in slow-mo if you take a digital camera to it and you see the screen do a flicker or seeing lines going down the screen. It's not just 1 solid flash, but a series of quick flickers that you can't see it.
FPS would have to do with your video memory...you have a sucky video card, you get sucky fps and vice versa.

Well, Patrick(smer) does know a ton about computers, prolly one of the most computer-smart people on these threads. That wasnt his point, his point was that Tyler was being an ass about everyones responses, and I personally agree with SMer on this one.

So there is a 100 FPS limit. Thank you Ragan for not going off topic.

anytime

I work on computers professionally for the Air Force (not much money there) -- but I do own a business where a service call is $50 and then it is $35 per hour. And yes, it puts me in a very nice tax bracket.

And oh yeah, quit your complaining about someone going off-topic Jimmy -- lest you be found guilty of the same thing down the line ... 100FPS is the max. Anyone getting 100FPS needs to be happy and praise their graphics card ... while trying to apply some self-control about the workhorse of a computer they own.

I got 130 fps recording a track once, I got this gateway thing with some big graphic card. If i knew anything about it I'd tell you but i don't so sorry [xx(]

It's time for me to get a new computer. My 2 year old memory card is just not cutting it for NL. I get 70 fps at most. I got more fps before 1.5 though.

Be sure to send me your old computer when you get a new one!

FN do you really want an '03 iMac?

It looks like this:




Edit: Maybe Gouldy needs it more.

yea I'm not totally stupid Real. I realize that working with computers is a pretty darn good job. However, for people who don't, people who do should be tolerant of their vague statements and just correct them. No need to be harsh. Tyler was just like "haha u idiots haha" he didn't even TRY to correct them.

I gave up on correcting the idiocy around here a long time ago. Not enough hours in the day...

Hell yeah! A Mac would do wonders for some of the stuff I will be doing in school too and plus Gouldy said he is already getting a new computer, so I definatly need one more than him!
