Frametime Analysis

We present a more in-depth analysis than just average FPS to show how the framerate changes over time, which helps highlight FPS drops. Minimum FPS at both the 95th and 99th percentile are reported in these charts, too. A second chart, a histogram, shows shape and spread for the frametime data—how tightly grouped the measurements are. The "IQR" result is called "Interquartile Range," which is an outlier-resistant statistical value that tells us the range in the middle of the frametime distribution.

In the following charts, we are comparing two retail memory kits. By doing so, the game benchmarks reveal where the limitations lay in a top of the line Intel computer for 2023. For both memory kits, XMP is loaded and all sub-timings are based on the individual XMP profile. These are not adjusted further.

Tests are conducted with the following components:
CPU: Intel Core i9-13900K (Locked P-core 5.5 GHz, E-cores 4.3 GHz)
GPU: PNY GeForce RTX 4090 XLR8 VERTO
Memory (1): G.SKILL Trident Z5 RGB DDR5-6400 64 GB F5-6400J3239G32G (32-39-39-102)
Memory (1): DDR5-6000 48 GB (42-42-42-82)

Benchmark Mode: Track: Brazil, Weather: Dry, Camera: Far Chase







The first game on the Frametime Analysis is F1 2022, which has some consistently odd results. It is better to keep the benchmark to show that not all games follow the same path. While the average FPS is higher compared to High graphical settings, the 95th and 99th percentile are actually lower.




Raising the game's resolution to 4K and F1 2022 is still in the same place as before, but the game performance difference has shrunk to the point it could fall under the margin of error (3%).
