No, it really isn’t.
Record a clip in oribos, show the graphic settings with everything maxed out and 150 fps.
If I put everything on the absolutely max, my computer, 9900k @ 5 ghz and 2080 super, will have at best, 40 fps in oribos. Your computer won’t get anywhere close to 150 with everything maxed.
These days I’m a little rusty when it comes to this.
How do you get more than 60 fps on a screen that can’t handle more than 60 fps?
Excess frames aren’t displayed so it’s good to limit the FPS at screen refresh rate.
Yeah but that wasn’t what I was asking about.
60hz monitor will only ever show a max fps of 60.
To go above 60 fps he’ll need a screen with higher hz
You can render way more frames than what the display shows. They will go to waste but they were rendered by the system. It’s not “on screen” but “on system”.
Yes but nothing over 60 fps will be shown on a 60 hz monitor.
Hence his claim having it show 120-150fps. Nah
In WoW more Single Core Performance is BiS. So yeah, it would improve as the IPC is better on the 8th Gen Intel, but far from the best.
Go Ryzen 5600x or wait for Intel i5-12600k for a huge improvement.
More Cores are better in Multithreading so when you do more stuff than just WoW at the same time, it might help. But WoW itself is not optimised for multithreading.
the only time a CPU upgrade might improve performance in WoW is if you have tons of addons or weakauras, but if that’s the bottleneck you should fix them rather than replacing hardware.
You can do this by playing with the v-sync settings in nvidia control panel (or the radeon one).
However it’s kinda useless if you got a 144hz monitor. For 60hz it may needed to change some settings.
Once again.
60hz Monitor = max 60 fps and not 120/150 fps as Thedarksteel claims
My question to Thedarksteel wasn’t serious.
The answer is yes, up to a certain point.
Generally you won’t see a lot of benefit from going from 8 to like 16 cores in most games, at least not at the moment, but from 4 to 6? Definitely. A gpu crates the image, but then it’s up to the cpu to do part of the work.
Also, those cpus are really old, like 2017 old, you should consider getting something more recent.
Also you really should not compare core to core and hertz to hertz if you are comparing different generations of products.
Because a new architecture could have less cores or less frequency, but still be better because or architectural improvements like higher instructions per cycle.
fps has nothing to do with hz,ofc a 60 hz monitor will show above 60 fps,but will cause tearing.
A 60 Hz monitor has the ability to display any framerate up to 60 with no issues at all. However, if you have a more powerful machine that is running at 240 fps, your 60Hz monitor will still display exactly the same as 60fps, though there will be screen tearing.
= you’ll get 60 fps on your monitor and not one fps more 
FPS meter measure FPS that system pumps, not the monitor.
i have screenshots of game maxed and 150/160 fps in oribus on my pc ,4790k,maximus hero 7,gskill ram 2400 16 gb,rog gtx 1080 oc limited edition.
can you tell me a site so i can upload them?
i normally dont lie,if my system pumps so much power is because is good system 
Yeah I just tried on the second monitor (60hz).
It did show 100 (ish) fps but felt like 60.
So we’re both right or I misunderstood.
Produces up to 150 fps he says but the monitor can only show 60fps.
We good now Thedarksteel, have a good day
That’s good. I never lie myself.
Like I said earlier, I’m bit rusty.
I wasn’t questioning the fps your rig produces, although someone else did.
But rather how a 60 hz can show more than 60 fps. Which it can’t.
But I see now, we good bro
PS. I would def buy a 144hz if I were you
its like this,the fps will allways be rendered and shown,but,if your monitor is 60 hz,all fps above 60 will be cut thus making the image tear,thats why they invented gsync witch will keep the same hz has the fps,example: you have 45 fps and the monitor will lower its hz to 45 so the image is synced,if you go to 135 fps your monitor will go to 135 hz.
but if the monitor is 60 hz he will show everything above 60 fps with tear on the image,in that case is better play with vsync so it caps the fps to 60 and making smooth gameplay because its synced 60 hz with 60 fps. (thats how i play) despite my system pumps 150+ fps
