    It ticks me off when i see twitch streamers with the fps displayed and its running at 300+ fps. What a waste of electricity, money and hardware.

      Eh, more frames means better latency, but up to what point it still makes sense is a whole other story.

        Turn on Nvidia reflex/AMD Anti-Lag and you got both, lower latency and lower power usage

          Reflex at 100 fps still won’t compare to 300 fps without Reflex though

            I wonder why, because technically it should be pretty much the same thing

              Reflex just shaves off the extra overhead you’d get from having the gpu run at its limit. It won’t make a low framerate have the same latency as a drastically higher one

                I know, that’s exactly what I am talking about

                  I think I might be too dense to get what you mean, then

        for pro players

        Exactly. Most people aren’t pro players however. I’ve also seen this with games like Baldur’s Gate fwiw.

        Not only that but people seem to do it sometimes just to flex, when turning on VSync is an objectively better experience with less screen tearing. There’s ZERO reason to drive 300fps when your monitor is only capable of 144Hz.

            You know the VSync setting had to be enabled in a lot of games for VRR to work right?
