What does 1% low FPS mean in Dota 2 benchmarks?

The 1% low FPS measures the worst-case frame rate during gameplay, the FPS that 99% of frames exceed. In this benchmark, the average is 60 FPS and the 1% low is 41 FPS. A small gap between average and 1% low means consistent frame delivery with minimal stuttering.

Tips & Tricks5

Moderate 1% Lows

1% low FPS drops to 41 FPS, frame drops below 90Hz cause visible stuttering. AMD Radeon(TM) Graphics usage at 94% is the bottleneck.

Critical GPU Usage

GPU usage hit 94% while CPU sat at 31%. Your AMD Radeon(TM) Graphics is the bottleneck, lower graphics settings or resolution to increase FPS.

Hot GPU Temp

GPU peaked at 84°C, thermal throttling detected. Use a cooling pad, clean air vents, or limit FPS to reduce heat.

Hot CPU Temp

CPU peaked at 87°C, thermal throttling detected. Use a cooling pad, clean air vents, or undervolt the CPU.

GPU Underclocking

GPU averaged 616 MHz, only 51% of its 1200 MHz boost clock while GPU usage is above 90%, severe throttling under load.

compressIs Ryzen 7 5800H with Radeon Graphics bottlenecking AMD Radeon(TM) Graphics in Dota 2?expand_more

No CPU bottleneck. AMD Radeon(TM) Graphics is the limiting factor at 94% usage, while Ryzen 7 5800H with Radeon Graphics has headroom at 31%. This is normal, most games are GPU-bound.

memoryIs 16GB RAM enough for Dota 2?expand_more

Dota 2 used 72% of 16GB RAM. Plenty of headroom for background apps.

thermostatWhat are normal GPU and CPU temperatures while gaming?expand_more

The AMD Radeon(TM) Graphics reached 81°C and the Ryzen 7 5800H with Radeon Graphics reached 87°C. On the warm side, check your case airflow and thermal paste.

trending_downWhat does 1% low FPS mean?expand_more

The lowest FPS drops, your lag spikes. Here it's 41 FPS vs 60 FPS average. A small gap means consistent frame delivery.

boltHow do I get more FPS in Dota 2?expand_more

Your GPU is maxed out, lower resolution, turn down ray tracing and shadows, or cap your frame rate. Your temperatures are high, clean your fans, check case airflow, or repaste your cooler. Thermal throttling kills FPS. Check the Tips & Tricks section above for specific fixes based on your benchmark data, including background apps, driver issues, and hardware settings.
