This limits the number of frames displayed to a maximum of 25 per Second. This shouldn't bother your game experience, but it should reduce the juice it needs from the graphics card. Find a value to your liking, but I wouldn't go further than 40, after all, you're playing an oldschool rpg and not some shooter
