# Top runs: * **Highest FPS**: `performance` with significantly higher average FPS compared to other runs. * **Smoothest FPS**: `userspace` with the lowest standard deviation and variance in FPS. * **Best overall**: `schedutil` with a good balance of high average FPS and relatively low variance. # Issues: * The `powersave` governor configuration has significantly lower FPS compared to other runs, with around 60% lower mean FPS compared to the highest performing run. * The `conservative` governor also shows lower FPS and higher variance, performing approximately 54% worse in mean FPS than the highest run. * A noticeable performance drop is present in the `userspace` governor configuration with approximately 37% lower mean FPS compared to the highest performing run. # Summary The benchmark compares different CPU governors on the AMD FX-6300 Six-Core Processor using a consistent hardware and software setup. The `performance` governor leads in terms of average FPS, demonstrating a clear advantage in raw performance. The `userspace` governor offers the smoothest experience by maintaining the lowest variance in FPS. However, configurations like `powersave` and `conservative` show significant drawbacks, with markedly lower FPS and higher variability, highlighting the trade-offs between energy saving and performance. The `schedutil` governor emerges as the best overall choice, balancing high FPS with good stability.
