| 60 FPS and 120+ FPS | Refresh rate must be locked to 30/60/120 fps to avoid skipped frames.[3] Setting "Borderless" in game + the desired refresh rate in Hz in Windows display options works. Your GPU must maintain the set framerate under all conditions (e.g. even in the rain). Any other framerate including variable refresh/FreeSync/G-Sync will give skipped frames.[3] ---200 Fps Cap |
