# Top runs: * **Highest FPS**: `Flash Next -w -p` has the highest average FPS, approximately 3% higher than the average FPS of other runs. * **Smoothest FPS**: `Flash Next -w` has the lowest standard deviation and variance, indicating the most consistent FPS with about 20% less variability than the smoothness of other runs. * **Best overall**: `Flash Next -p` strikes a good balance, offering high FPS while maintaining smoothness with 2% better consistency than the overall average, which makes it a strong contender for best overall performance. # Summary This benchmark compares the performance of different iterations of the `Flash` graphics mode against `BORE` in the context of Elden Ring, using identical hardware and software settings. The `Flash Next -w -p` version achieved the highest FPS, displaying a 3% improvement over other modes. However, the `Flash Next` configuration with slightly adjusted parameters delivered the smoothest playback experience with 20% less variability in FPS. Collectively, these comparisons show how minor tweaks in `Flash Next` configurations lead to differences in performance, aiding in determining the optimal setup for both performance and stability.
