How can I check how much fps I am getting in game? Many tools can be used to track frames rate. I personal favorites are FRAPS and MSI Afterburner. I'm thinking of buying Intel i5 4690 Quad Core CPU with a new motherboard. How many frames would I get? I have an msi 670 oc You would get some good frames. That's a great CPU for gaming. But would that be worth upgrading my monitor to 120hz? If you have the GPU/CPU power, yes. Your would get information faster and the game will feel smoother. For more info...
