Public benchmarks and official documentation used to calibrate the toolkit.
Open interactive TapLab ↗TapLab’s current-generation performance tiers use public benchmark hierarchies as calibration anchors. The site then applies its own per-game model for FPS ranges, 1% low estimates and workload balance.

Supabase RLSTapLab does not copy review benchmark tables into the user interface. Benchmark hierarchy percentages are used to calibrate relative hardware tiers, while TapLab’s game-specific output remains an estimate. Older hardware not present in the latest test suite may use legacy or internally estimated relative tiers and is labeled as such in the methodology.
