# Top runs: * **Highest FPS**: `RUSTY` with a mean FPS slightly over 60 provides the maximum average frame rate across all runs, offering the highest throughput. * **Smoothest FPS**: `BPFLAND-default` exhibited the smoothest performance with the lowest FPS variance and standard deviation, ensuring more consistent frame rendering. * **Best overall**: `FLASH-5ms` presents a balanced blend of high FPS and stability; it leverages a combination of a relatively high mean FPS and low standard deviation, outperforming in smoothness while maintaining commendable frame rates. # Issues: * One configuration exhibited a notably lower FPS; specifically, the setup demonstrated a mean FPS approximately 2% lower than all others, with an increased variance and standard deviation that led to less consistent performance, revealing issues in maintaining smooth gameplay. # Summary In this benchmark of `AC IV Black Flag` on `CachyOS` using different configurations, the performance varied significantly in terms of FPS and frame time stability. Several configurations maintained an average FPS just above 60, with variations in smoothness. The run with the `performance` scheduler using the `RUSTY` label achieved the highest FPS, while `BPFLAND-default` was the smoothest. The `FLASH-5ms` offered an optimal balance, representing the best overall performance by combining relatively high frame rates with minimal variance. Anomalies were observed in one configuration that notably fell behind others, emphasizing the impact of even slight changes in system settings on gaming performance.
