60 fps is 60 fps. However, it’s possible that either the PS5 or PC version of a game has poor frame pacing.

Other things to consider:

  • are you using VRR on one platform but not the other? If your monitor has a higher refresh rate than 60 hz, did you make sure to enable VRR or manually lower the refresh rate while playing?

  • Are you sure you’re actually getting 60 FPS on PC? Some games have poor frame limiting implementations.

Say that again but veeeeery carefully

If both are locked at 60fps then it's the same either way

However are you playing them on the same display? Because for instance a 100hz or a 144hz display isn't a direct multiplier of 60 and the display itself can cause jitter or ghosting. Even if the display is 240hz which is a direct multiple the processing of adding extra frames can make it jittery

Framerate is an average amount of frames produced per second. This doesn't say anything about the pacing. With consistent pacing, a game running at 60fps should produce a new frame every 16.7 milliseconds. However, for instance, if half of those frames took 33.4 millseconds to produce, and half took 8.4 milliseconds, you are still getting 60fps, but it will feel choppy as the frames aren't being produced consistently.

Is it an Unreal Engine game? Could be shader compilation stutter on PC.

What sort of question is this

say it again but slowly

Yes and no. I'll presume youre playing the same game on either platform cause how optimised the game itself is could factor in. Also presume you tried other comments solutions.

60fps is 60fps but there are factors to consider. As mentioned, consistency of frames but also, since you mentioned it's on pc you find the issues, it might be worth checking likes of gpu usage and RAM.

[Game bar might be helpful- Quick way to check in game, if you press and hold the windows key and then press the 'G' key, it'll open Xbox game bar (alot of useful features if you want to play with them a bit). The bottom left corner will show gpu, ram, vram etc. Clicking on the settings of it you can change location to a bar and shrink it so it just shows numbers, then pin it. It'll stay on screen if you do that even after leaving game bar. When you do that and go into the game, it will continue to show values in percentage. If anything is very high, it will affect your gameplay.]

Likes of cpu and gpu, you will want around 80 or 90% at least depending on graphics card. Close to 100% in any of them will cause issues for everything. If your ram is too high, close apps in the background, especially likes of chrome tabs. If it's gpu, turn down the graphics a little. If it's vram, turn down graphics a bit, ideally texture related. You could also try reducing the room temperature as a PC running hot will have some issues.

Realistically, 60fps is still 60fps so these solutions aren't demanding, you don't need to go from ultra settings to low, even lowering shadow quality a little is likely enough. Another thing that could affect it is you're trying to play a game with an older gpu so performance in general won't be insane especially considering the ps5 has a pretty damn good graphics card and alot of PC users use a lower performance one. A better gpu will manage poorly optimized games better obviously but games like fortnite are extremely well optimized.

TL:DR - Close background apps, lower graphics a little and keep the PC cool. Any further help, just ask and I'll try :) hope the issue gets resolved.

Maybe visually it's the same. But the feeling of it is different with a mouse.

You can play most PC games with a controller and tones of console games with kb and m.

Idk what the point of this comment is, I checked your profile and you've literally posted fortnite clips on x box with a controller. Nice use of "goofy ah joysticks.

Really* You're*
