Hi, this is a matter of synchronization with the screen refresh. Note that 20/15/10 fps are divisors of 60. If you are rendering at 60 fps and you draw the frame too late, you have to wait for the next refresh, so your framerate will go down to 30 fps. If you draw slower, the frame have to wait until the next refresh signal, so the framerate will drop to 20, then 10, then 6... until 1/0 fps. For experimental purposes only, you can deactivate the vertical synchronization in your driver options and see how these ranges disappear. Note that this is not recommended because it lessens the image quality (tearing artifacts may appear).
