-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Hiya, what I'm saying is I get 500 fps with no need for any timer and no enhancements to the o.s (and fwiw the media player or boost fix doesn't raise it above that if fps_max is set way higher, but it obviously does for some other people). I'm not complaining, or looking for a fix! I'm just pointing out according to the thread I should only get 64 or 1000 (I get 64 unless I set fps_max 600, then its a constant 500), so it may be worth quantifying that its not always the case in the thread and some people may be able to get 500. Why it is for some I have no idea, guessing its different o.s flavours. I do appreciate people trying to help me though, but its not required, just pointing out a possible mistake :). I'm totally fine with 500fps.
