720p 60FPS vs 1080p 30FPS? [POLL]

[Nvoltis]

Just curious, what would you guys pick? Just vote, and if you have the time tell us what you chose and explain why you chose that.

 

You have 1 choice out of 2... 

 

- 720p w/h 60 Frames per second.

 

OR...

 

- 1080p w/h 30 Frames per second.

[Horrorfull]

720 60FPS

[Sauron]

You forgot the "depends on the game" option

[ZetZet]

for streams i like 1080p 30 when its a slow game and 720p 60 for csgo or smth. for games... 1080p 60...

[Devastion]

Depends on the monitor's size.

[Horrorfull]

HAHAH no...

 

PC MASTER RACE!!!! minimum is 1080p 60hz, anything lower can go burn

All depends on the game. Since I play FPS games 30 FPS go go ahead and burn.

[AlwaysFSX]

360p 29.97fps

[TheSLSAMG]

720P, 60FPS.

 

I can't stand choppy gameplay.

[TheKDub]

1080p 60FPS.

[Cokeman]

I personally rather do 1080p 30 fps. 720p 60 fps is what next gen consoles do

[Guest]

HAHAH no...

Peasant we must have 4k at 60fps MUAHHAHAHA!

[TheKDub]

360p 29.97fps

 

I'd rather have 144p 3.14fps

[Jamdude]

Below 1080p 60fps is unacceptable.

[Rorgash]

yea i play CS go on my 144hz monitor at as many fps as the game allows me

[rambi36]

I'd rather have games run better than look better. with my main system I don't have to make too many compromises on graphics to get good FPS  but with the rig at my mom's house i set the res to 720p to get smoother gameplay

[Guest]

As long at it is a constant 30fps and its at ultra I'll take 1080p with 30 fps

[Ruostunut kokis]

720p 60fps. I don't have a 1080p display, so...

 

30-40 fps or above is fine for me in most games.

 

Source games... Over 60 fps is a must have.

There are a lot of games. The only one I don't like below 45 is Skyrim.

[sqwidee]

30Hz isn't even a real measurement of refresh rate (SLOW ISN'T EVEN A REAL WORD). 1080p 60Hz minimum.

[TheRetiredSlave]

Two questions:

What is 720p?

What is 30 FPS?

 

The lowest numbers I've heard of are 1080p and 60 FPS.. I'd much rather run at low settings with no AA, AF, or AO instead of having to lower resolution (though 900p is decent enough) or framerate..

[Manny Calavera]

Ok, if i had to choose one for all games, i would choose the 1080p 30fps one given that it is indeed synced and never dips at all.

 

Obviously if i had option to choose for games ( PC can do that ) then i would choose depending on game.

[DoubleY]

I made a thread about this a while ago  

http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/68272-twitchtv-streams-1080p-and-30fps-or-720p-and-60-fps/

 

Well, it's similar 

[Whiskers]

It would depend on the game.

 

For fast paced competitive and or multiplayer games

I would prefer a higher framerate. For story-based

games where I will likely have more downtime and

slower pacing I would likely prefer the higher

resolution.

[Sonefiler]

I can honestly barely tell the difference between 30 and 60fps. But, that's probably because both are a huge improvement to my 10FPS minecraft playing on my MacBook Air 2011.

[MEC-777]

720p 60fps on a smaller display.

 

Otherwise 1080p 60fps minimum. I don't want to play anything at 30fps. The only game I put up with 30fps was Dark Souls because it's locked and the game is/was awesome.
