Frame Rating: Visual Effects of Vsync on Gaming Animation

[news 28]

The plan for today's article is going to be simple. I am going to

present a set of three videos to you that show side by side runs from

different configuration options and tell you what I think we are

seeing in each result. Then on another page, I'm going to show you

three more videos and see if you can pinpoint the problems on your

own.

Quote: "In our continuing research on graphics performance, part of

our Frame Rating story line, I recently spent many hours playing games

on different hardware configurations and different levels of Vertical

Sync. After this time testing, I am comfortable in saying that I do

not think that simply enabling Vsync on platforms that exhibit a large

number of runt frames fixes the issue. It may prevent runts, but it

does not actually produce a completely smooth animation."

 

Thanks!!
