Why 59.94 fps?

Knowledgeable engineers know that 59.94 fields per second is a legacy of the NTSC color system, because prior to 1954, black-and-white video was locked to the 60Hz frequency of standard AC current in the United States.

Should i use 59.94 or 60?
This number is sometimes rounded to 60 fps, but it is best to use 59.94 fps unless you really mean 60 fps. High definition equipment can often play and record at this frame rate, but 59.94 fps is much more common because of NTSC compatibility.

Is 59 fps better than 60?
Yes, there will be slight stuttering. When monitor refreshes at 60hz, optimal FPS is 60. Any lower and frames will be held up on screen until next one gets from GPU. This means for any framerate between 30–59 you will get some frames kept for more than one refresh cycle.

Is ds1 60 fps on ps4?
All versions of the game target 60fps, though only one console gives us an absolute lock, while the PC release rights many wrongs - but is a remarkably unambitious effort overall.

Is 60hz better than 59.94 hz gaming?
There is no difference between 59 Hz and 60 Hz, in terms of performance. Both 59 Hz and 60 Hz are translated to 59.94 Hz before they are sent to the monitor's chip and should, therefore result in identical performance.
