NVIDIA determines real-world benefits of GPUs on gaming

NVIDIA is publishing information on gamer gameplay performance in Battle Royale games, and how technology can help gamers perform better.

NVIDIA partners with e-sports professionals to develop the most competitive hardware. The company's graphics cards are optimised for high frame rate gameplay, which helps improve latency and overall reaction time.

In an observation of data from real-world players, it was found that higher frame rates do indeed help reaction time and competitive performance. Those playing with higher-end GPUs with high refresh monitors have a meaningfully higher K/D ratio* over players playing with lower end GPUs with 60 Hz monitors. Ideally, the system should run at 144+ frames per second (FPS), paired with a high refresh monitor.
