n3ga was a bit short on the details in this thread.

After asking him about these new servers, he said that they have much better average FPS and there are less servers on a box. They should be pretty good and if you’re after a high performance server you should definitely ask them for a trial on one :)

Can someone please explain to me how does a server FPS work and why does it even need FPS?

Somebody could possibly explain this better, but a server renders player locations and such, and even though it only sends 66 fps (ticks) out the more fps the better the hit reg for example. Less servers running on a single box also means less fps drops & tick drops.

Basicaly what Koeitje said. the more the better, makes the gameplay smoother. Therefor easier to play with, my server is 600fps most server are 120fps I can certainly see the differance. but once you hit 300FPS it does’t really matter….

Altho in theory more is better.

—-EDIT—

This server is alot cheeper…. http://www.fpsmeter.org/p,view;39349.html
Mine was £60 for 6 months.

Theres cost £24.96 Per Month.

because bigger numbers are bigger than small numbers and therefore better

edit: and therefore EXTREME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

not surprised you didn’t see any difference, last time I checked even with a high resolution timer you couldn’t get above 512fps in the engine no matter what you set, setting 1000 or 600fps gave us a steady 512fps, teh default setting is 300fps which actually gives 256fps this was/is the behavior under xp & server 2003 not tested the kernel timer in server 2008 to see what affect it has yet :D

looks like n1ping are running a custom linux kernel set to 1000mhz rather than the default 100mhz, not sure how thats translated into a stable 1000fps in source lol
a link to whispers site explaining fps & tickrate etce

Less servers on the box is nice, but stop with the FPS bullshit. You’re not going to run 1000FPS when there are actually clans fighting on it ;)
