hey what's up guys - you back with another video and today I am going to show you how I benchmark stuff so asked you guys have probably seen in the last couple of videos I have used two types of software to benchmark video games to show the gaming performance and stuff like laptops and PCs and graphics cards and that kind of stuff and today I'm basically just gonna show you how I did that and how I do that on a regular basis so first up I use two types of software so the first software that I use is called fraps and that software has an inbuilt benchmarking thing so what I do is I use that and then I grab the data from that and put that into a software called smart draw or which I can and make a graph out of that data so let's get right into showing you guys how all of this comes together so first off this is the laptop of which we are going to be testing it's called the Dell Inspiron 15 75 59 yes a long name but here are the specifications in terms of CPU it has an Intel Core i7 6700 HQ that's a quad core chip for graphics it has lead the 960m 16 gigs of ram 128 gigs of SSD and a one terabyte mechanical hard drive and the screen is a 4k touch IPS display of which we are not going to be using we will be testing at 1080p let me bring up this screen recorder and get right into showing you guys how all of this works all right let's show you guys all of this again I actually tried to start a screen recorder but that would not work because I was using fraps and a screen recorder at the same time and those would not like to cooperate so I'm sorry about the about the video not being as sharp as it might have been using a screen recorder instead so what I do is right here I start this software called fraps look something like this click on the the FPS tab and I'm gonna choose the benchmark settings to be min Max and average FPS what that will basically do is give me the data of the minimal fps in that instance the max fps and the average FPS altogether and I choose to stop the benchmark after 180 seconds which is three minutes and I have the benchmarking hotkey to numb Enter so let's start a game that we want to benchmark we can start a game let's start rocket League okay we are now inside of the game I'm just waiting for the actual game to start before I can before I can start the benchmark perfect now what I do now is I click the benchmarking hot key which is num enter now and now now now I can just play the game just like I would play it any other time I'll just play the game just like someone else would play the game nothing too spectacular and the fraps software is in the background benchmarking how well this game is being displayed in terms of fps all that jazz min max average all that jazz let's just play for three straight minutes and I'll be right ah crap that was Oh alright that was kind of a kind of a bad move there but perhaps will let us know when it's done with its benchmarking okay so the benchmarking is now done you can see that because the actual FPS number has popped up again I'll leave you alone now I'm sorry about that this is for a video so what you then do is you go into fraps and you click on the view you then get this this file here and you click on the fraps log and now here you have your your past log of all of the games so what I do now is I bring out an NST card and I plug it into the Rd actual PC okay aye-aye-aye copy the benchmarking and folder and I bring it into the SD card like this copy/paste and now I will be right back on my main PC because that is where we are going to do the actual graphs all right you guys I am now at my main pc and i'm gonna show you what i do right here so i have imported the benchmark file right here so what you do is you can open it click on the fraps log and here you will get each game it's time being benchmark its frames and it's and here you will get its average of yes followed by min FPS and max FPS in each and every game that you test it it's it's simple so what you do now is get to your to the graph making software that you you that you yourself want to run me myself I use a a software called smart draw and turn price addition yep and so what you do now is go to click the bar graph and we will start off with a game no as a first off we will make our benchmarking a folder on Windows click so right click new my bench marks 960m so now what we will do here ace we will start off with the rocket league as you can see up here so let's bring this down with a rocket League 1080p medium settings to v2 alright and now we are gonna hire or we are gonna make the maximum fps a lot higher so what what's our maximum it was 133 so let let's make the maximum here 840 like that alright and now we're gonna choose all of these categories and things like that we are actually going to have to delete these three and we're gonna remove that serious oh wait not that serious we're gonna remove the actual category so remove that category and remove that category and remove that category and then here add serious perfect so now we are gonna change these colors as well so this is gonna be min fps and we will choose the color right here so we so let's choose that as blue let's choose the the average FPS as orange the max FPS as Yello all right so now if you look at rocket League up here we can see that our men fps was 40 so you can either drag this to 40 or just type it out but drag it to 40 and the oh and also here in the side here we can show them what we mean so here blue is men fps that is average FPS not DPS and that is max FPS okay so our average FPS was as you can see here ninety-five point four so 95 there we go and Max was a hundred and thirty-three 133 and now the category here down below we'll just say 960m and now this graph is done so what we can do now like now you can just play around with the background some stuff like that like other colors and all that but to make this one simple I am just going to make it white and now what you do is you pick a file save as and choose the benchmarking folder and I want to save it as a PNG file save as rocket League and save now you can choose the scale with the width and height so I'll choose 1280 by 528 that will be perfectly fine okay so now that gets in here and now we have that file here but that is how you do that and you and you do the same thing over again until you have each and every game in here with the stuff that you want to show basically so that is how I create my benchmarking results and tests and it's also how many many other people do it the only real difference is maybe some other people use different graph making a software and there are of course free versions available of graph making software's so just search that online but the links to fraps and to smart draw software will be down below in the description so you don't have to search around for that so that's how I do it and once I'm all done here I will be left with a folder with all of these that I can import into Sony Vegas and show you guys it's just like this thank you for watching please leave it like if you enjoy the video and I'll see you guys in the next video have a good one peace you
