The world\u2019s most popular video sharing website recently enabled 60 FPS support for all but there are a few caveats you\u2019ll need to be aware if you want to view buttery smooth content.<\/p>\n<p>For starters, you\u2019ll need to be running Google\u2019s Chrome browser to view 60 FPS clips. When watching with Firefox, Internet Explorer or Opera, the option for 60 FPS simply doesn\u2019t show up on the desktop. This appears to simply be a glitch as we\u2019re hearing reports that 60 FPS does work in Safari.<\/p>\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/7PiFWIu_Y0o?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pcworld.com\/article\/2841076\/gamers-rejoice-youtube-now-supports-silky-smooth-60fps-video-uploads.html\" target=\"_blank\">PCWorld<\/a> points out, 60 FPS likely won\u2019t mean much for most of the clips you watch on YouTube. Where it does make a difference, however, is with video game footage. As you\u2019ve no doubt noticed in the past, clips that don\u2019t run at the native frame rate of the game in question show noticeable distortion and generally don\u2019t look too great.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s more, 60 FPS for game clips will no doubt give YouTube a boost among gamers looking to host their clips.
