The number of '''frames per second''' (abbreviated to '''FPS''') | The number of '''frames per second''' (abbreviated to '''[[FPS]]''') technically describes the rate of video frame update of the whole screen per second, but mostly can impact image transition smoothness. This rate is often described in [[wikipedia:hertz|hertz]] (Hz), a frequency in cycles per second. Generally, the frames per second of a game does not help if it exceeds the refresh rate of the monitor (i.e. 60 Hz = 60 frames per second refresh on the monitor). | ||
In games like [[World of Warcraft]], a lot of pressure is put on trying to keep the rate as high as possible, but is generally considered more important in faster action games like [[wikipedia:first-person shooter|first-person shooter]]s. | |||
