Steam may soon tell you how much FPS to expect before buying a game

A new Steam leak suggests Valve may be preparing one of the most useful store features PC players have wanted for years: an estimate of how a game will actually run on your hardware before you buy it.

Based on new client string info found by the user Roadrunner on SteamDB, Steam appears to be working on a Framerate Estimator that would let users select a game and a PC configuration, then view estimated framerates built from data collected from other Steam users with similar hardware.
