All testing is done in a temperature controlled environment, maintained at 70F (21.1C). Whenever possible, we will use integrated benchmarks to ensure consistency, however if an integrated benchmark is not available, FRAPS or OCAT will be used to analyze the FPS. Each benchmark will be done multiple times, with the results averaged.
