games fps?
People often showed their games ' fps as a measure of how good they run. But since fps in a game is not constant. So how do I select the most representative fps in a game?

All right, here are some fps numbers from some games.

Oblivion: 60
Vampire-bloodlines: 75
Drakan, order of the flame: 48xx
Far Cry: 500-700
Gothic 3: 60-80
S.T.A.L.K.E.R. : 80-120

I hope somebody can explain why the numbers in Drakan and Far Cry are very high ?

My specs:

AMD phenom HD 955 4X, 3.2 ghz
8 gig RAM
radeon HD 4870 X2, 1 gig each
hard disk velocyraptor 10,000 rpm
winXP pro 64-bit.

simple...

Games that are less graphically demanding will yield higher fps...

Probably not. I run "Harry Potter and the sorcery stone" which is very simple graphically and the fps is 60.

BTW, hello Lucyfhh123. Welcome to the forum.

Much depends on the engine and how coded and optimized it is. A BAD example is Crysis that is so messsed that you, sometimes can run it with a high end computer with ****tiest FPS you ever seen another one is Arma 2.
You also,if you have a new multicore system needs to check in games if it supports multicore if it doesn't,it isn't really weird if you got really low fps in some games, a good example is old games.
Another thing is drivers and OS,Vista heavily weighs down when gaming if you dont turn some options down,drivers can be good and bad also OC'ing.
