1% & 0.1% Lows Explained! 

I came here just after watching your reviews lol

I just came here after watching the 80w vs 90w difference test.

Kamel Alramahi which ones better?

i came here just to like you.

I can confirm😂 I'm here because of you

Not fast enough.

Anass Rhammar Oh shit what did I miss.

Paul's Hardware why what happened

I was thinking the same thing! haha

Elaborate

Jason Bayens I love you too Doge . Pepe bless .

oh my god BITWIT LOVED MY COMMENT JOY OF JOYS!!!

That's because "As fast as possible" is Kyle's bedroom motto. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

wut

wot

I'm building my first PC and this really did help me!

What did you think? It will be helpful for only 10 days?

@@stuff6585 I'm glad I don't see the world in a negative light like you do. Must be horrible walking around in all that gloom. Maybe therapy would help?

Make it 5 lol

So if i have a game running at 40 FPS and 0.1% at 30 FPS its good but at 25 FPS is bad?

@@pegameplay7409 Yes because even though you have a lower frame rate it's consistent and having a consistent frame rate is better even at lower frame rates than high but inconsistent frame rates.

@@rowdy1003 How do I improve my 1% and .01% lows?

@@rinati75 lower graphic quality, lower resolution, update driver.

So what is the cure for these low %s? Limiting framerate? Going back to 1080p?

Hi Steve :)

Hardware Unboxed i thought they were important in reviewing​ hardware ,but didn't know they were that important 😋

+GYM BUDDIES - Honestly I often conduct hundreds if not thousands of benchmark runs per week testing GPUs, CPUs, system memory and so on. Almost never do I run into a situation where the .1% and 1% results tell me something the minimum doesn't. In fact it's been quite a few years since I found the frame time data from Fraps (and now PresentMon) necessary. Pretty much since AMD fixed the multi-GPU stuff ;) Guys in the comments often make a big deal over it, I think they are just trying to sound smart ;)

Hardware Unboxed 🤔 hmm , it all comed down to if the gameplay is smooth or not and when u do testes with so many hardware combination ,i can just sit back and watch your review were results are shown and at the background your reassuring voice is guiding which one is to choose ,and the point bitwit mentioned about user's getting used to stutter because they don't know the smoothness over time is true but he forgot one important aspect ,we all have friends and users who are watching videos on RU-vid don't just play all day alone​ at their home , friends have different PC's but still we don't know the best combination to choose ,like you shut down all the blah blah comments by showing a dual core processor is strong enough to utilise the 1050ti fully (g4560) ,i read those comments on previously about when you used your i3 for testing gpus and people commenting​ that you are idot ,u r not using its full potential ,blah blah ,but the stutter issue will only happen who only play's at their own pc and don't have any friends ,no social life ,etc,even though i eas gonna upgrade to g4560 bye watching your video's but still waiting for ryzen r3 , because g4560 is amazing paired with 1050 or rx470 ,but the cpu usage is at it's full like 90% or more ,so when you gonna compare r3 with i3 or g4560 could you please add the cpu usage Percentage 🙏,even though i believe you ,but it will be quite reasuring seeing if the ryzen r3 is like using 70 % cpu usage than g4560 90% ,even if frame rate are little lower r3 , I will still buy that one because its more future reassuring , because anything can happen in future,🙏

Hardware Unboxed No you don't have to do that. The 1% low is technically the 99th percentile in a frequency distribution. This way, you are using a sample set, get the 99th percentile and that's it. If you average it over three runs, then it's something different and not accurate. If you want to do three runs, get all frame-times on all three runs and set them as one bigger sample set. Then get the 99th percentile from those and that's it. You don't take percentiles of each run and average the three. That's just not how we do it with statistics. If you average the three then it's not the 99th percentile anymore because it's from different sample sets. Sure you can still average three runs but its not the 99th percentile (aka 1% low).

drekoll Totally agreed. They're amazing

BT and his voice is a few octaves lower.

BT he hit puberty

and he's speaking more slowly. Linus has some great content, other than when he's using cringeworthy construction techniques, but the speed with which he speaks can be annoying.

I don't get it.

the video title earlier had "as fast as possible" in it... and it is used by techQuickie, a channel of linus... so yea!

E-Fap

@@anassrhammar9126 so what's better? Higher number or Lower for FPS LOW

DrearierSpider1 Yeah, I'd rather get smoother frames than higher frame rates tripping over themselves. After running RX 480's in crossfire, I can state that while some games were vastly better than others about keeping the stutters to a minimum, they were always there.

you too? I get this all the time.

Ram speed ftw

Fitz powell nice dio picture

Some of the Ryzen 5 CPUs have more than 4 threads unlike i5s, which can help with minimum framerates in some games. Edit: And, yeah. Read agc's reply below.

Shouldn't people just be happy about these better frametimes instead of constantly looking for something negative, or something to disbelieve?

Intel mainstream CPUs are currently limited to 4 cores, with i5's having only 4 threads, and the i7 having 8 threads. When in a modern game like GTA V you are going to be maxing the CPU out, and any sort of background task or heavy action (big explosions, etc) is going to create a very noticeable stutter if it pushes the CPU into trying to deliver something it can't in the time allotted. Quite simply, it's a bottleneck established by a crap core count. The R5 1600 and R7 lineup is much more in line with the 6800k and 6900k respectively and there is absolutely no shortage of cores to offset background tasks or keep up with the game's demands.

most reviewer only tested/benchmark those CPU at a very limited time, probably less than 10m each. So it's not exactly representative of real world usage. I bought i5 6400 because in the review it have a good average fps and 1% and 0.1%. However in my daily usage including Hours of gamplay the 1% and 0.1% are considerably worse than what reviewer achieve, so take review with grain of salt.

Because they use clean OS, nothing close to an actual pc used by someone. That's why you should sell your crappy 4 core and get at least the Ryzen R5 1600. No worries about lack of resources, no ipc or OC is going to fix a lack of cpu resources (cores/threads/cache). Some reviewers won't tell you but they can also disable services, sound, etc to reduce even more OS loads. A fantasy kind of workload.

I made a quick example for you in photoshop: i.imgur.com/KBDEGDd.jpg

tighter is better.. oh wait...

The spread really doesn’t matter, as long as all data sets show the same or at least similar trends. It just means you have benchmarked a section of the game that offers a varied workload.

Hardware Unboxed i still cant understand actually.. hhaha.. based on the example, can u tell me which is better n which is not so i can study how to differentiate them..

My point is not the technicality of what 1% and 0.1% lows mean. Just put in the graph what is "better" so everyone knows what they are looking at when they see a comparison.

Anass Rhammar dude,at least he reviews things i can get my hands on,so it's still better for us.

More than meets the eye
