MSI GeForce GTX 970 Gaming OC review - FCAT Frame Experience Analysis Hitman Absolution

Hitman Absolution Frame Experience Analysis

Above, the percentile chart of the 28 seconds gaming @ 2560x1440. Here we plot FPS and place it in relation to percentiles.

• 970 - 50% of the time measured frames is doing roughly 55 FPS, which would be the average framerate.
• 980 - 50% of the time measured frames is doing roughly 65 FPS, which would be the average framerate.

Please let me remind you of the fact that this is measured at a monitor resolution of 2560x1440. The higher the line, the better.

Again, with this chart, lower = better as the faster one frame is rendered, the lower latency will be. Huge spikes above 40 ms to 50 ms can be considered a problem like a stutter or indicate a low framerate.

On this 28 second run the graphics card manages to remain below 20 ms (here lower is better), we see no major stuttering in the chart. Both cards do produce one frame drop. It's an anomaly that you can not see in a 28 second run. other then that both cards show absolutely perfection frame experience analysis wise.

And here is the FPS plot for today's tested card, recorded for 28 seconds in the timedemo. We are way above 50 FPS on average, nice.
