# Top runs: * **Highest FPS**: `proton-cachyos` with approximately 2% higher average FPS than the other run. * **Smoothest FPS**: `proton-cachyos-ntsync` with a lower standard deviation and variance in FPS compared to the other run. * **Best overall**: `proton-cachyos` with higher FPS, showing only a slightly higher variability in FPS compared to the alternative run, making it the better choice for both performance and reasonable stability. # Summary The benchmark compares two configurations: the regular `proton-cachyos` setup and the `proton-cachyos-ntsync`. Both runs utilize the same hardware and software environment featuring an AMD Ryzen 5 1600X CPU on CachyOS with the `schedutil` Linux scheduler. The `proton-cachyos` configuration delivers a higher average framerate, about 2% better than the `proton-cachyos-ntsync`, though with a marginally increased variance in performance. Conversely, the `proton-cachyos-ntsync` setup provides more stable framerates. Overall, the regular `proton-cachyos` configuration stands out as the best choice, balancing superior FPS with acceptable stability.
