What does 1% low FPS mean in Rust 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 124 FPS and the 1% low is 91 FPS. A small gap between average and 1% low means consistent frame delivery with minimal stuttering.

Tips & Tricks4

GPU Temp Sensor

GPU temperature reported 1°C, this is a sensor reading failure. Temperature data for this session is unreliable. Try updating GPU drivers or check if monitoring software is conflicting.

Moderate 1% Lows

1% low FPS drops to 91 FPS, frame drops below 240Hz cause visible stuttering.

Low Utilization

GPU at 47% and CPU at 40%, neither is fully loaded, yet 1% low FPS drops below your 240Hz refresh rate.

FPS Limit 240

FPS was capped to 240 but it was not reached. Remove the FPS limit in Rust settings for reliable data.
