What is the difference between frametime and FPS?

Compared to FPS, frametime is used to see how long each frame lasts until the next one is rendered. If we represent the results in a graph and see how some frames last longer than expected, that is where our performance issues come from. Monitoring frametime is a very simple process, which we can do with the MSI Afterburner software.

What is the importance of frame time in gaming?

Frame time is important because it varies. In a second where there are 60 frames, those frames usually aren’t evenly spaced at 16.6ms, and if the variance is high enough, the game won’t feel as smooth. Take Gotham Knights as an example.

What is the purpose of tracking frametime?

Frame rate tells you the overall performance level, while frame time says more about the experience of actually playing the game. They’re tied together, too. Above, you can see the frame rate over time that corresponds to the frame time chart up the page. As the frame time goes up, the frame rate falls, and vice versa.
