I enjoy racing simulation games, even on a basic machine. Once I had a low-end PC, I played Assetto Corsa with mouse controls. In the early days with an nVidia GT 610, I ran F1 2013 at the lowest settings—about 40 FPS, a lap around Monza took roughly 1:25:###. After upgrading to a GTX 760, I reached around 200 FPS, and a Monza lap came down to 1:23:###. How can I be two to three seconds quicker in the same car with identical setup? More frames per second definitely means faster laps?

You gain access to additional frames for quicker reactions. Your performance has likely increased over the past two years.

No, the variation is insignificant

We're discussing input delay. I stopped playing F1 2013 recently and am testing a new setup.

It's tough to describe. Used to be super dedicated, playing nonstop. To be honest, I haven't played this game in a couple of years. I decided to reinstall and it worked much better!

Rallying: minor timing gap of 1-2 seconds is typical. F1: precision is crucial, even a tenth of a second counts. This disparity is tough to accept.

I believe it's best to close this discussion now. It seems like an intriguing puzzle...
