I play Minecraft (yes, judge as you will) with a bunch of friends. After several months of this, I found out that one of my friends was playing the game at 15-25fps with most settings turned fairly low. Appalled, I told them "you don't know what you're missing! Even with a graphically-poor game like Minecraft!". But. They had become accustomed to it; it was all that they knew. In fact, they didn't even realize that their system was performing so poorly until I pointed it out to them. Moral of the story: people can make do with just about anything, as long as it runs. Of course, it's not as good, and I would never recommend skimping out on a system just because "you can get used to it". But life finds a way!

For several years, I managed to get by with nothing but Intel integrates graphics, even for slightly newer games. Nearly everything on low settings would run at less than 30 FPS, and I was perfectly ok with it.

[@FS7kills]

Maybe game developers could list 3 tiers of requirements: -Minimum: bare minimum requirements for the game to run. -Recommended: requirements to run the game at 1080p60fps with high settings in-game. -Ultra: requirements to run the game at 4K60+fps/VR with all in-game settings on max/ultra.

deepak kona for competetive gameing you need at least 80 fps. 60 will be fine to play but not competetive. You will have disadvantage due to the response time. Yeah it sounds weird but there is huge diffrence between 60 100 fps. 200 fps is the best because you dont need more and on 200 fps lag dont even exist and game is so smooth even on 60hz display. I hate in pc gameing when someone with more money will win even with less skill only because you have worse fps, stutter, lower res makeing is harder to see.

[@mayravixx25]

Yeah, LowSpecGamer is pretty damn cool. My performance in Skyrim went up drastically, going from 15fps max to 30-45fps. It made a significant difference. ...until I got Windows 10's Creators Update, which forced the framerate to only go to 28fps and lower. I'm on Windows 8.1 now and enjoying the higher framerates in all of my games, even games that my processor lacks the power in like GTA 5 (25fps), Dishonored (30fps) and Life Is Strange (28fps). On Windows 10, those framerates were basically cut in half (not always, sometimes the framerates were only reduced a small amount, usually 5fps less.) Hence why I'll never go back to Windows 10 :p

[@deepakkona649]

RavenChan which is best windows 7 or 8 or 8.1 or 10 or XP?

[@mayravixx25]

For performance, I'd say Windows XP. Problem with that one is that it's no longer supported anymore, so it's not really safe to use. Windows 7 is pretty good but for whatever reason, I couldn't seem to use GeForce Experience to install the latest drivers, not to mention support will end for it soon. Windows 8 and 8.1 are pretty much the same in my opinion, 8.1 being superior because of the start button being included. Windows 10 is an absolute nightmare to use if you end up getting the creators update. Framerates were horrible, RAM was almost always at 50% usage, startup times went from 10-20 seconds to 5 minutes no matter what I did, disk usage was always maxed out, and desktop icons' behavior was severely messed up. If you can avoid the creators update and stop the windows 10 spying, it's pretty good actually. Personally, I'd say go with 8.1, but that's just my opinion. I have had problems with updates causing Windows 8.1 to sit at a black screen after updating, and has forced me to use system restore twice to get it working again so if you do use Windows 8/8.1, create a restore point as soon as you have all the programs and games you absolutely need so you can go back to that point if an update fucks you over, especially with Steam games. Be sure all of your Steam games are installed before creating a restore point though. I had a major problem with it deleting my games from the PC (including GTA 5 which took four hours to download. Still haven't reinstalled it yet.) When using system restore, double click on the restore point and it should show you a list of programs that will be uninstalled and make a list of the programs to get back.
