I got fraps loaded up, and i also enabled torques FPS measuring function. i'm getting some different numbers.

as you can see(or not) fraps is reporting 228 FPS while torque is only reporting 126.

Which is correct?. Why are they different?

I could be wrong, but I would say fraps is more accurate, as it probably estimates the time between send to the front buffer better, instead of when a particulcar functions gets called again (metrics).

Any idea what MSPF means? Is that milliseconds per frame?

Yes, it's how many milliseconds took to render one frame

Bank is correct.

so, MSPF = 1000/FPS
