Description

For example "nvidia geforce rtx 3080 ti" reports 60 FPS, whereas "nvidia geforce rtx 3080 ti laptop gpu" has 190 FPS in the benchmark data. Is the FPS result limited by display refresh rate in some cases (but not in all)? This is a big problem for applications that need classification above 60 FPS.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the benchmark data for the RTX 3080 Ti and its laptop variant, then trace how browser display refresh rates could affect the recorded FPS. Done means determining whether the 60/144 FPS caps are caused by refresh-rate synchronization and documenting or fixing the benchmark behavior so high-FPS classification is reliable.
