# Top runs: * **Highest FPS**: `Proton GE 10.8 2` offers slightly higher frames per second on average compared to other runs. * **Smoothest FPS**: `Proton TKG NTSync 1` stands out with the lowest frame time variability, providing a smoother gaming experience. * **Best overall**: `Proton TKG NTSync 1` combines a competitive FPS with superior smoothness, making it the best choice for a consistent performance. # Issues: * The Proton TKG NTSync runs generally exhibited higher FPS consistency with lower variability compared to the Proton GE 10.8 runs, indicating more stable performance under the former, even though both used the same hardware configuration. * Proton TKG NTSync runs had consistently better low percentile FPS, suggesting they performed more consistently during the lower sections of FPS range. # Summary The benchmark compares the performance of `Proton GE 10.8` against a custom `Proton TKG NTSync` build using the same hardware but different runtime environments. Throughout the runs, the `Proton GE 10.8` achieved slightly higher average FPS, but with larger variability, whereas `Proton TKG NTSync` runs demonstrated a more stable and smooth performance, which might be indicative of better CPU load management or optimizations under the custom build. This suggests that while `Proton GE 10.8` could be suitable for those prioritizing average FPS, the `Proton TKG NTSync` might be the preferred choice for those seeking a more stable and consistent gaming experience.
