FPS Comparison - Compare 30, 60, 120 and 144 FPS
Compare multiple frame rates side by side. See the visible difference between 30 FPS, 60 FPS, 120 FPS, 144 FPS and higher refresh rates.
For the clearest comparison, choose rates at or below your display refresh rate and keep this tab visible.
Why Higher FPS Looks Smoother
Higher FPS reduces the distance an object moves between visible frames. This produces clearer motion and can reduce the delay between an input and the next displayed image.
First run the refresh rate test.
30 vs 60 vs 120 FPS
30 FPS is common in cinematic console modes but can look choppy during fast camera movement. 60 FPS is a strong baseline. 120 FPS improves clarity and responsiveness further on a compatible screen.
144 FPS, 165 FPS and 240 FPS
The differences become progressively smaller, but high-refresh displays can still reveal them during rapid motion. Panel response time, frame pacing, motion blur and input latency also influence the result.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I see 144 FPS on a 60Hz screen?
No. A 60Hz screen can display at most 60 complete refreshes each second, although rendering above 60 FPS may still reduce input latency in some games.
Is 120 FPS better than 60 FPS?
On a 120Hz or faster display, 120 FPS provides smoother motion and lower frame delivery latency.
Why do high FPS lanes sometimes look the same?
Your active display refresh rate may be too low, the browser may be throttled, or the selected rates may exceed what the screen can present.
