The record

Purpose: WhatFPS is a free benchmark for gaming PCs that measures GPU, CPU, RAM and disk performance.
Graphics APIs: The benchmark runs DX11, DX12, DX12 Ultimate and Vulkan tests.
GPU tests: GPU testing includes three 3D scenes and a stress test covering compute, memory bandwidth, textures and fill rate.
CPU tests: CPU testing covers floating point, integer, SIMD/AVX, single-thread performance, L1/L2/L3 cache latency and a DX11 draw-call test.
RAM and disk tests: RAM tests measure read, write and triad bandwidth plus DRAM latency; disk tests measure sequential reads, 4K random IOPS and p99 latency.
Results: Benchmark results appear on a public leaderboard with percentiles for comparing a rig against other measured rigs.
Result verification: Runs are signed in the app, checked by the server for plausible values and replay attacks, and unverified runs are excluded from the leaderboard.
Privacy: The app collects hardware information and test-time clocks and temperatures; it does not collect files, browsing history or other processes, and in-game FPS tracking is opt-in.
Distribution: The FAQ says the Microsoft Store is the only installation route and that Store updates are automatic.
Platform limit: The app supports Windows 10/11 and does not yet work on Mac or Linux.
Hardware limit: Processors without AVX2 cannot run the app, and weak systems with integrated graphics or less than 6 GB of graphics memory may freeze during the 4K scenes.
Support: The FAQ directs users to contact the maker at [email protected].
Who it is for: The maker describes it as a benchmark for gaming computers and says it is built for gamers who want to compare their hardware performance.
Beta status: The maker says benchmark scores and methodology may change during beta, with changes documented in the changelog.
Price from: Free
