Some lucky humans are capable of seeing the world at a higher "frame rate" than others, according to the results of a new study, and the authors believe that the trait could even give those people an edge when it comes to competitive gaming and sports.

Actual hard science, brilliant. I'm on the higher framerate boat, 30 fps on consoles just feels slow and sluggish, if it's not 100fps on PC or 60fps constant on console then it's not even worth playing in modern times
Just like there is a night and day difference to my eyes between 30 and 60fps, the same applies from 60 to 100 fps. Beyond 100fps I find it's just an additional bonus depending on the game, like in HZFW quick reactions with the mouse feel faster/smoother at 139fps than they do at a locked 100fps, technically speaking that makes sense since the frame times are lower at the higher fps, but after 120fps it's mostly diminishing returns in this specific area.
