This ensures a comparable, raw evaluation of hardware capabilities, ideal for users, developers, and reviewers who need forward-looking metrics.Note: The frame rate achieved in this Benchmark is directly comparable to typical video game performance, due to its settings, focus on cutting-edge rendering, and upscaling solutions. Achieving 60FPS can guarantee the same performance with optimized settings.A score of 10,000 is translated to 60 FPS.
