This seems to be implying 20 fps on a gaming pc looks like the first image....and 200fps looks like the second image.

The description they then goes on to say they tested it on LOW settings to obtain the 200 fps and it's not guaranteed...

So the pictures should actually be inverted? If they are to imply better quality at 200fps, but they tested it to run on lower quality to get the 200fps..does this not seem misleading?

Beware...something fishy here.

This seller is claiming on takealot that 20 fps on a gaming pc looks like the first image....and 200fps looks like the second image.

In their description they then go on to say they tested it on LOW settings and it gets 200 fps...

So the pictures should actually be inverted, they imply better quality at 200fps, but they tested it to run on lower quality to get the 200fps..

Beware.

That isn't advertising.
It's an incorrect description.

Did you attempt to contact them and inform them?

Or did you run here to cry wolf?
 
Beware of what? A stupid advertising mistake? Even if it was intentional, seems like a random thing to pick up on and warn people about. Sounds like you have beef with them for some other reason.
 
I don't like false advertising and taking advantage of people who don't know better, anyone with real knowledge about computer hardware and gaming knows this is misleading.

Implying with pictures that "fps" translates to better graphics is completely untrue but then to write that the said "200 fps" was obtained using low settings is showing how completely they are mis-representing with the image.
 
It's targeting young people who play fortnite because they don't know better, it's sick really.

Where is the issue?
If a system can't run at high FPS then it will skip frames and be slow.
They are using a visual comparison to show the difference.
There's nothing wrong with it.
Have you tried playing current games with an iGPU?
If not, you need to. So you can understand that even quality settings mean buggerall.

What's sick about it?

Frame rates? Faster is better - so they're not wrong, even if they represented resolution as FPS. You seem to have a grudge of some sorts.

what huh, wait, huh......young people as in people under age of 18, who don't earn money ? Yeah sure that makes a lot of sense.Make a statement in your first post, with zero context, zero links.... hoping that people will search for ''choas crew'' and direct traffic, quite a sneaky attempt at advertising choas crew.

in fact this is their description on takealot, which is perfectly fine.Seems either advertising, or bitter idiot who no one should be entertaining any more. my bet is advertising.

GTX 1650, 200 fps fornite, in the image quality on the 2nd picture. 100% impossible and misleading.

Why misleading and impossible?
Are your graphics settings on that card even configured?
How could it be impossible if you see the image right before you?
Did they photoshop it? I highly doubt it.

You still confuse FPS with quality settings.
They go hand in hand.
With a bad GPU you would definitely see the left is quite normal.
With a good GPU, the right image makes perfect sense.

And yet the description clearly states it was tested on low comp settings to achieve 200 FPS how the &&$%$% is that misleading, it says that on EVERY &$%%$%$&$ fortnite PC ad......Any person with half a brain cell could put two and two together, even if the images doesn't match up....So what if the images are incorrect they aren't intentionally trying to mislead people, their description is proof enough....

Mountain out of a molehill much.How old are you 5, can you show us on the teddy bear where they touched u ?
