CPU + GPU Combo Results
Every completed UserBenchmark test generates a forensic result page for the specific CPU+GPU hardware
combination tested. Results pages are available at
/results/combo/{cpu-gpu-slug} — for example,
/results/combo/core-i9-13900k-rtx-4090.
What the Results Page Shows
Each results page presents the complete forensic profile of the hardware pair:
- System Grade — S / A / B / C / D derived from CPU decay, GPU decay, and PT consistency
- Class Archetype — Behavioral fingerprint label based on the full forensic profile
- Thermal Health Score — 0–100 composite of CPU decay, GPU decay, and PT consistency
- Synergy Score — 0–100 measure of CPU+GPU balance (no bottleneck = high synergy)
- PT Samples Per Second — Path-tracing throughput; higher = faster ray-tracing GPU
- Silicon Doctor Diagnosis — AI-generated headline finding, primary cause, evidence summary, and prescriptions
- Crowd Comparison — Percentile rank against all runs for the same hardware pair
Grade Scale
Class Archetypes
Grade S + synergy ≥85 + thermal ≥90. Perfect across all stages.
Grade S/A + PT SPS ≥7 + synergy ≥75. Strong path-tracing focus.
Thermal ≥85 + both decays ≤5%. Thermally exceptional and stable.
PT SPS ≥8 + GPU decay >20%. Fast but runs hot.
CPU decay significantly worse than GPU. CPU bottleneck detected.
Both CPU and GPU decay >20%. Systemic thermal failure.
PT SPS ≥5 but consistency <65%. VRAM contention.
Grade B + synergy ≥60. Solid reliable performer.
Default class. Benchmarked, awaiting optimization.
Silicon Doctor
Every results page includes a Silicon Doctor diagnosis generated from the forensic data. The diagnosis covers:
- Headline: One-sentence summary of the key finding
- Primary cause: The root driver of the result (thermal, VRAM, bottleneck, etc.)
- Evidence: The specific measured numbers that support the diagnosis
- PT verdict: Path-tracing specific analysis
- Prescriptions: Actionable steps for grades C and D (critical, recommended, optional)
Aggregate Combo Data
Once a hardware pair accumulates 5 or more test results, the combo page also shows crowd-sourced aggregate data: average thermal health, average synergy, average PT SPS, grade distribution, and the Hall of Fame (top 3 all-time runs). Combo pages with sufficient samples are indexed in /sitemap-combos.xml.
Data Freshness
Aggregate statistics are recomputed every 5 minutes via an automated flush process. Individual test results appear in real time on the personal results page immediately after the test completes. Anomalous results (statistical outliers) are excluded from aggregate calculations.
