# Top runs: * **Highest FPS**: `ZZZ_NR_HW_ALL_HWP_NATIVE copy` with a mean FPS approximately 3% higher than the majority of runs. * **Smoothest FPS**: `ZZZ_NR_SW_ANY_HWP_NATIVE copy` with the lowest standard deviation in FPS, indicating very smooth performance. * **Best overall**: `ZZZ_NR_SW_ANY_HWP_NATIVE copy` with a good balance of high FPS and low variability, offering consistent performance with approximately 2% better stability compared to the highest FPS run. # Issues: * The performance under `ZZZ_NR_SW_ALL_HWP_OOB copy` is notably worse, with approximately 4% lower FPS on average compared to other runs like `ZZZ_NR_SW_ANY_HWP_NATIVE copy`. Additionally, it suffers from about 44% more variability in FPS, leading to less stable performance. * Run with `ZZZ_NR_HW_ALL_HWP_OOB copy` shows significantly higher FPS variability in comparison to others, resulting in less consistent frame rates, though the mean FPS is within similar ranges. # Summary This benchmark of Zenless Zone Zero focused on comparing various CPU power settings, which influenced performance outcomes. The `EnergyEfficientMode` settings were on par with other configurations, but the `SW_ANY_HWP_NATIVE` provided the smoothest gameplay, with less frame rate fluctuation and an adequately high performance overall. In contrast, `SW_ALL_HWP_OOB` settings led to suboptimal FPS stability, while runs using `HW_ALL_HWP_NATIVE` achieved the highest average FPS, suggesting this power setting configuration offers better raw performance at some cost to consistency. All configurations were tested on CachyOS with a uniform hardware setup, maintaining comparability across experiments.
