Top runs:

  • Highest FPS: Cyberpunk2077_2024-09-14_BORE_SMT-off with approximately 3% higher FPS, indicating superior frame rate performance compared to others.
  • Smoothest FPS: Cyberpunk2077_2024-09-14_BORE_SMT-off with a significantly lower standard deviation and variance, ensuring more consistent frame delivery.
  • Best overall: Cyberpunk2077_2024-09-14_BORE_SMT-off as it balances high FPS with smooth frame timings, making it the superior choice for overall gaming performance.

Issues:

  • The LAVD run with SMT-off has notably lower FPS performance, approximately 21% lower compared to the best performing setup. This lower performance could be attributed to a consistently lower GPU load and GPU power consumption observed during the run, indicating possible inefficiencies or throttling.
  • The LAVD run with SMT-auto showed considerable fluctuations in FPS with about 29% higher variance compared to the smoothest run, suggesting stability issues even with reasonably high mean FPS.

Summary

The benchmark compares FPS performance using two kernel scheduler variations - BORE and LAVD, with SMT-auto and SMT-off settings. The BORE configuration with SMT-off exhibited the best results, offering higher and more stable FPS performance, while both LAVD configurations struggled with lower FPS and inconsistencies. These findings indicate that the BORE scheduler, when optimized with SMT-off, provides a superior gaming experience for Cyberpunk 2077 under the tested conditions.
