Some of us are FPS whores.....When we dish out a bunch of money on a PC we want to see results.If we play a game and only get 30 it's aggravating because when you get top notch hardware you expect it to pretty much take anything you can throw at it but 30FPS is is barely acceptable, anything lower and it is noticeable slowdown; lots of $$$ for 30FPS is a bad.Plus it's good to have a buffer incase it drops for some random reason .

EX:Say I get 70fps (lol) then the monolith of doom appears.Rather than plummeting to 0 it goes to like 25-30 so I can still play at a reasonable rate...That is of course an example, I have never gotten anything higher than 36FPS outside :rotfl: .
