# Top runs: * **Highest FPS**: `Proton-CachyOS 10.0-20251015-slr` with around 3% higher average FPS compared to the other runs. * **Smoothest FPS**: `Proton-CachyOS 10.0-20251015-slr` with the lowest FPS variance and standard deviation, indicating greater smoothness. * **Best overall**: `Proton-CachyOS 10.0-20251015-slr` because it offers both the highest average FPS and the smoothest gameplay experience. # Issues: * The performance in the run using the Arch Linux OS is about 7% lower in average FPS compared to the `Proton-CachyOS` variations, indicating a possible issue with the configuration or the usage of a different OS while other system specifications remain the same. # Summary This benchmark compares three different Proton configurations running on an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 with an AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D CPU using different setups. `Proton-CachyOS 10.0-20251015-slr` stands out with the best performance, achieving the highest average FPS and the smoothest operation among the tested configurations. While the same hardware setup is utilized across the board, the switch from `Steam Runtime 3` to `Arch Linux` seems to negatively affect performance, as seen in lower FPS measurements. This suggests that the environment can play a significant role in game performance, with `Steam Runtime 3` provided by `Proton-CachyOS` showing superior results in this comparison.
