============= Gaming FPS ============
Some of buyers reached out me about FPS for specific online games (such as Fortnite, Apex, CS GO, etc).
However, I don't support software and I can't check out all games.
(I don't think Cyberpower, HP or Dell does that support)
✅ All my PCs will tested and done benchmark:
✳ CPU-Z (100% loading) and Furmark (graphic stress testing and benchmark) simultaneously.
✳ Furmark score and FPS will be compared to make sure. There is not problem in hardware and driver.
✳ It's a proof of working condition.
✅ About FPS estimation, it depends on your set-up: hardware set-up, software setting and installation.
💢 Resolution (monitor and game setting)
💢 Games and their graphic setting
💢 Windows enviroment (anti-virus software, streaming software, background service, driver, plug-in, etc)
⚡ Resolution: lower resolution, higher FPS
- Type: The most polular one is 1080p.
💢720p (1280 × 720, HD)
💢1080p (1920 × 1080, FullHD)
💢2K 1440p (2560x1440, QHD/WQHD)
💢4K 2160p (3840 × 2160, UHD)
💢8K 4320p (7680×4320, FUHD)
- For gaming, 1080p or 2K should be perfect options. They are great enough for 24", 27" or 32" Ultra-wide monitor. You don't really need 4K. With bigger resolution, FPS will decrease significantly.
- The maximum setting will depend on monitor. All modern graphic cards will support at least 2K resolution.
- Selecting a lower resolution will help to increase FPS a lot.
🌟For example, your monitor's maximum resolution is 2K. You can select 1080p in game setting, instead of playing at 2K with much lower FPS.
⚡ Game and graphic setting
- Each game utilizes different graphic engine. CPU and GPU usage will be different. Please check the game requirement from official website.
- The graphic setting will help to disable/enable visual effects (such as smoke, shadow, lighting, etc). FPS has to trade off for having better VFX. Normally, turning off those VFXs will increase FPS.
⚡Windows enviroment
- Anti-virus is the most common issue. It always runs at background and take care every processing.
Those procedures may cause a bottleneck at CPU if you have a lot of anti-viruss, anti-malwares or anti-adwares in your system.
🌟Installing only ONE anti-virus in your system.
- Don't install any softwares which you don't know clearly.
They can run background/daemon service and cause CPU bottleneck. Some of them are faked anti-virus, anti-adware or anti-malware.
✅ The following note is a basic guideline to check a expected FPS of specific PC.
There are a lot of factors which affect to FPS, not only your graphic setting in game.
✳ 1) Your monitor's resolution and in-game setting:
- A higher resolution, a lower FPS
✳ 2) With a good CPU and memory, FPS will completely depend on graphic card.
- For example, replacing i5-7600k by i7-7700K will not increase FPS.
All games can't utilize CPU 100% (both number of cores and processing of 1 core)
- You can research and refer an approximate FPS on Internet by checking the FPS review which have the same graphic card. Youtube is good resource.
✳ 3) Don't install application/program which you don't know.
