Frequently asked questions

Where does FPSHQ get its data?
From four sources: official developer and Steam system requirements (191,286 games), hardware manufacturers' specifications (1,965 GPUs, 456 CPUs), FPS measurements from reviews, YouTube and players (106 independent measurements and 4,800 rows of aggregated review data), and the FPSHQ model where no measurement exists — always labelled "estimate".
What is the single FPSHQ FPS model?
One algorithm that, from the GPU score, the CPU gaming score and the game's demand, computes FPS at 1080p/1440p/4K on Low–Ultra presets. The same number appears on every page — games, GPUs, comparisons, calculators — and whenever a real measurement exists it takes priority over the estimate.
How often is the data updated?
Games and requirements — daily from Steam; hardware prices — several times a week; new GPUs and CPUs — on announcement day; FPS measurements — continuously as the app submits them; gamer hardware statistics — daily from 1,401 online tests and app data. Every page shows its as-of date.
Can I use FPSHQ data on my own site?
Yes: there is a free "Can it run" widget and a public API with rate limits (the API section), plus a Telegram bot. The data is open under CC BY 4.0 — when using it, credit FPSHQ as the source with a link and date.

Methodology and sources

This page uses the FPSHQ database: the GPU and CPU catalogue with synthetic benchmark scores, official game system requirements, FPS measurements from users of the FPSHQ app and the FPSHQ performance model. Calculated values are estimates, not a measurement of your exact configuration: the real result depends on drivers, settings and the rest of the hardware. More about the methodology →
