FPS vs Hz
A frame is a single still image, Which is then combined in a rapid slideshow with other still images, Each one slightly different, To achieve the illusion of natural motion. The frame rate is how many of these images is displayed in one second. To produce or render a new frame your CPU and GPU work together to determine the action of the AI, the physics positions and textures of the objects in the scene to produce an image. Then your GPU cuts this image into pixels at the resolution you set and sends this information to your display. Your monitor or display is where refresh rate comes in and is measured in frequency or Hz which is how many times per second your display can redraw the screen. So FPS and Hz are two different measurements for two different things FPS is a measurement for your GPU and Hz is for your display! That's my take on it anyway.
JUST THOUGHT I WOULD POST THIS!
