Sorry, but you're all wrong. The eye doesn't even see in FPS.

Yeah, but the "eye seeing in fps" is more as another way of saying how fast the eye can detect a changing image before it simply doesn't notice the difference.

People posting on a mod/game page to report their frame rate "lags down to 30 fps"

YOU POOR THING

30 is a pretty comfortable fps buuuut.... usually when it drops to that it will almost never average it. 25-20 fps is really really really bad. So hence the moaning. I'd rather have it average beyond 30 so when the more cluttered scenes hit I don't get a slide show.

Yeah, that's true. Kman is still wrong, though.

Seems like Kman's been watching Fight Club a lot recently.

Depending on stimuli your eyes will see in different "fps" for different parts of your sight, for example the center of your eyes are more sensitive to changes in an image than those further away from the center, this is why you get tunnel vision if you stare long into a scene that doesn't move, because you don't stimulate your eyes and the brain sort things that don't change and throw them away. The reason why you still see things even if the scene doesn't stimulate your vision is because of small rapid movements to update your eyes with a new images, but the big receptors are not efficient enough to pick up on that and thus you get tunnel vision.

The more you know.
