[SOLVED] Dont trust benchmarking videos

[ceriumin]

I'm terrorised. I watched a benchmark once for fx4300 and gtx1050 in overwatch to see how it would run. 70 fps on medium somewhere around that. I used to have a gt710 and upraded to a gtx1050 and still own a garbage fx4300 which I will soon save for a Ryzen 3. But I launched overwatch and I'm getting 150 fps on epic settings please help I'm getting too high fps the benchmark videos lie. Don't trust them kids. Also ples help me my head can't handle the fps I'm too used to 20fps

There are probably other factors that come with that. Ram, PSU, MOBO and that shit. Also you should be used to the fps soon. Altough it's my first time that I heard that someone can't handel 100+ fps when they only play on a 60hz monitor. I mean, the rest except the games are at 60 fps, soooooo.

Ok... so your getting better FPS then the video, isn't that a good thing?

If the FPS is too much for your then cap the FPS via Vsync or the game.

Yeah it should be. But I guess he wanted to bring attention to the fake benchmarks. I think I only know one who does these weird benchmarks

I mean I oc'd to 75hz bust still 150 fps on epic on a gtx1050. My cpu is probably going to die but ok

Ok you probably don't get what I'm talking about so goodbye my friend

Well unless your CPU or GPU is overheating (Max 80C on GPU, max 63C on CPU) getting higher FPS doesn't hurt anything. If it does overheat then capping the FPS to your monitor will lower the temp as your system won't be pushed as hard.

You still need to consider other factors. He may had ** ram or a ** mobo or a ** psu. Or he just turned on/off weird settings. These are only the rare cases tho. You can't tell people to don't trust Benchmark videos if you only saw ONE person doing it

many people are going to have different hardware and the same GPU of the benchmark vids the FPS will not be the same because it depends on the hardware people have. These vids are there to guide and help people

They might've just cranked up the render scale extremely high.

Or, you know, the fact that they are also recording on top of the gameplay.
Since you arent recording you should obviously expect better FPS, assuming all else equal.

Dont get me wrong, youtube "benchmarks" are a joke.
