# Top runs: * **Highest FPS**: `bore-performance` with a significantly higher average FPS than others. * **Smoothest FPS**: `bore-performance` with the lowest standard deviation and variance in FPS. * **Best overall**: `bore-performance` due to achieving the highest FPS with a better consistency compared to others. # Issues: * The run using the `powersave` governor shows dramatically lower FPS (over 50% lower than the next highest run), indicating a substantial performance issue. * The run using the `conservative` governor also underperforms in comparison to other runs with a considerably lower FPS (around 10-20% lower) and significantly higher FPS variability. # Summary This benchmark compared the performance of different CPU governors on a setup running CachyOS with an AMD FX-6300 Six-Core Processor and AMD Radeon R7 370 GPU. Among the governors (`userspace`, `schedutil`, `performance`, `ondemand`, `powersave`, and `conservative`), the `performance` governor provided the best results, achieving the highest average FPS with the least variability. In contrast, the `powersave` and `conservative` governors were notably inferior, delivering significantly lower FPS and greater inconsistency, which suggests these settings might not be suited for performance-intensive tasks.
