I believe it is 24FPS because that is the speed at which the eye pieces the pictures together to get a smooth continuous running. (I think) Someone will correct me if i am wrong, but it is what I have my FPS set at.

F_E_M do you actually get 80fps on your computer?

If so what are the specs?

That seems like a cool machine!

That probs explains it! 2GB RAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I rarely get above 30fps. I see you have no problem with frame rates if you download fps hungry addons! I want your computer!!!!

Do you have all the settings on MAX?

How do you check to see how many FPS you have gotten up to?

"Shift+Z", in a rocker motion 2 or 3 times and you'll have 2 red lines of information at the top of your screen.
