# Top runs: * **Highest FPS**: `The Finals Xorg` with approximately 20% higher average FPS compared to the other run. * **Smoothest FPS**: `The Finals Wayland` due to a lower standard deviation and variance in FPS, making it more consistent. * **Best overall**: `The Finals Wayland`, despite having a lower average FPS, its stability (lower variance) makes it preferable for a smoother experience. # Issues: * The configuration utilizing X11 exhibited a significantly higher standard deviation and variance in FPS, around 120% more compared to the Wayland run. This suggests unstable frame rates. * The X11 configuration also showed unusually high GPU power consumption spikes, with an approximate increase of 35% on average and reaching up to double the power consumption at times compared to the Wayland run. # Summary This benchmark compares the performance of Wayland versus X11 under CachyOS using the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti and AMD Ryzen 7 5700X, both configured with the `powersave` scheduler. The X11 run achieved a higher average FPS but demonstrated significant instability with higher variance and power consumption. On the other hand, the Wayland configuration provided a more stable and smoother FPS, despite a slightly lower average, indicating better overall performance for sustained gaming without fluctuations.
