A:AnswerThe average FPS (frames per second) you would run on games like Fortnite and Rainbow Six Siege can vary based on several factors including the specific settings you choose, the resolution you're playing at, and any background processes running on your system. However, with the Acer Chromebook 516 GE's powerful hardware including the Intel Core i5-1240P processor and the 120Hz display, you can expect smooth gameplay with FPS well within the playable range for both Fortnite and Rainbow Six Siege.
For Fortnite, you can likely achieve FPS in the range of 60-120 FPS or even higher depending on your settings. Rainbow Six Siege, being a more demanding game, may run slightly lower but should still comfortably reach 60 FPS or higher on average settings.
It's worth noting that these estimates are based on cloud gaming performance, so actual FPS may vary slightly depending on your internet connection stability and the performance of the cloud gaming service you're using. Overall, the Acer Chromebook 516 GE is well-equipped to provide a smooth gaming experience for popular titles like Fortnite and Rainbow Six Siege.
A:AnswerSince Chromebooks run off apps like Android devices, if the game is available at Google Play Store or Chrome Web store, it should work. From what we find, Steam is possible on Chromebooks now and more information is on Google's support site.
A:AnswerWhile Acer does not test gaming apps, available games are at the Google Play Store or Chrome Web store. Steam can be used and Google support has information on using Steam on Chromebooks.
