Is 60 FPS better than 30?

Benjamin F. Janzen, Robert J. Teather · 2014

We present a pilot study investigating the relationship between frame rate and latency and their effects on moving target selection. In several latency/frame rate conditions, participants were given a 20 second time frame to click as many moving targets as possible. Performance with 60 FPS frame rate was 14% higher than 30 FPS, but the difference between 45 and 60 FPS was not significant. Latency alone had lower impact than the corresponding frame rate difference. While both factors impact performance, frame rate had a larger effect than the latency it introduces.
