# Top runs: * **Highest FPS**: `BORE 5.7.0 patch B Run 1` with a mean FPS almost 2% higher than the others. * **Smoothest FPS**: `BORE 5.7.0 patch C Run 3` had the lowest variability in FPS, offering more consistent performance. * **Best overall**: `BORE 5.7.0 patch B Run 1` balances the highest FPS with reasonable stability and performance metrics. # Issues: * The unpatched version consistently underperforms compared to both patch B and patch C versions by about 2% to 3% in mean FPS. * Notably, the GPU core clock of the patch C runs is consistently lower than others, hinting at a possible configuration error or limitation. * The CPU and GPU temperatures for the patch B runs were marginally higher compared to patch C, indicating slight thermal concerns that might affect long-term stability. # Summary The benchmark was conducted on CachyOS with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti GPU and an AMD Ryzen 7 5700X CPU, comparing the performance effects of patches B and C on `BORE 5.7.0` utilizing the Linux kernel version 6.12rc4. Patch B exhibited the best performance with the highest FPS, while patch C offered smoother gameplay through lower FPS variability. The unpatched kernel trails behind both patches in terms of mean FPS. The variance in GPU core clocks across the patch C runs suggests a potential configuration issue that did not impact overall performance dramatically but should be investigated further.
