I mean even these browser ports aren't at the native framerate. The native framerate for these demos was 70hz as they were all designed for VGA video modes.

A browser can run at whatever framerate you set your monitor to. Mine supports 70Hz.

  • But most people’s monitors don’t, or people just never set them outside the standard rate.

    • My monitor's standard and actual rate is 165 Hz, which is probably not terrible at approximating 70 Hz (very few fps from a small multiple of 70 would be worst).

      High fps is probably a little more rare than HiDPI, but also becoming more common. It's already common in phones.

  • Sure. I don't think I've ever had an LCD monitor that supports 70hz at a useful resolution though. My current monitors (native resolution 2560x1440) only seem to support it at 1024x768!
