For me, anything 25 FPS or higher is 100% fine and I'll be enjoying my time. I never play competitive online shooter games ever, though. All single player ones like GOW and the likes. I game on a 60 Hz 4k monitor. GPU is AMD RX 6600 alongside Ryzen 7 5700G and 32GB RAM. My games are set to meduim most of the time at 4k. Demanding titles are on low. Surprisingly, GOW and GOW Ragnarok are both set to ultra and I still get around 40ish FPS.

I don't have one.

I have a very simple process for dealing with all of this - I never check my framerate in the first place, so I never know what it is.

I just play games If there's noticeable stuttering or lag then I maybe try to do something about it, and if there's not, then I just play and don't worry about it.

That's actually a good way of doing it. I used to be this way, but I don't know how and why I started using a team's built in FPS counter and mangohud. I'm going to stop using it so I don't have to keep glancing it all the time. Thank you.

It's not like I notice it more when I have a frame rate counter turned on, I'm just not questioning how bad or how often the drops are when I have it enabled.
