Gaming Check
Review browser-visible hardware, display, network, input, and performance signals that can influence online gaming experience.
The check combines available processor, graphics, memory, display, network, and browser information with clearly stated confidence levels. Use the intended gaming display and network, close unnecessary background work, and complete the related frame-rate, latency, and controller tests.
What does this test measure?
The check combines available processor, graphics, memory, display, network, and browser information with clearly stated confidence levels.
Why is this test important?
Review browser-visible hardware, display, network, input, and performance signals that can influence online gaming experience.
How do you run the test?
Use the intended gaming display and network, close unnecessary background work, and complete the related frame-rate, latency, and controller tests.
How should results be interpreted?
The result is a readiness guide, not a promise of frame rate in a specific game. Game engine, resolution, settings, drivers, cooling, and hardware all matter.
Normal and problematic results
The result is a readiness guide, not a promise of frame rate in a specific game. Game engine, resolution, settings, drivers, cooling, and hardware all matter.
Technical limitations
A browser cannot run a native game benchmark, read all GPU specifications, temperatures, driver state, or exact in-game frame rate.
Why can the score decrease?
Unstable measurements, denied permissions, unsupported browser APIs, background load, power saving, or an incomplete test can affect the result. When a score changes, the result screen explains the reason.
What should you do if a problem is found?
Compare game requirements, update trusted drivers, verify display mode, test latency, and lower one graphics setting at a time.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can a browser tell me whether a game will run?
Only partly, and this page is explicit about where the line is. It can read the graphics adapter name, processor count, approximate memory and display capabilities. It cannot read your drive, installed drivers or real graphics memory, so treat the result as an indication rather than a verdict.
What usually limits gaming performance most?
In most builds the graphics card sets the ceiling, but an older processor can hold back a strong card, and running out of memory causes stutter that no graphics card can hide. Thermal throttling in thin laptops is the hidden cause behind many disappointing results.
My hardware is good but the frame rate drops. Why?
Sustained load is usually the difference. Hardware that performs well for one minute can slow down once it heats up, especially in a laptop. Background downloads, power saving and an old driver produce the same symptom.
