it's not even that. Unless you have a cutting edge 120 hertz monitor, it is only doing around 60 fps ANYWAY regardless of how fast your computer can generate the frames.

Yeah but even if you had a cutting edge 120 hertz monitor, your eyes couldn't tell the difference. It would all be in the persons imagination.

Thanks so much for the update!  I've been able to continue my game (it had become unplayable by Tuesday, so I let my husband play )  So far I've experienced a major improvement in squads and it seems like magic is doing a bit more damage--but I haven't played enough to be sure of that.

Anyways, I look forward to a day of gaming and really testing this patch out while I finally finish my game!  Thanks again!!

Definitely much smoother experience playing. Stayed around 25-30fps all the way through turn 400 and no signs of any slowdown yet.

And my point about running a game over 60fps is that you will simply have a smoother game experience. Less stutter etc, regardless if the monitor is only showing 60fps. 

Exactly. 60 FPS does not mean that the distribution is even. It's an average number. "60 FPS" tells you nothing about spikes.
