I built a free tool that estimates per-game FPS for Arc GPUs across your whole Steam library

Arc owners get the short end of the stick on benchmark coverage, far fewer per-game FPS numbers floating around than for Nvidia or AMD. So I wanted to share a free tool that covers Arc properly.

You enter your Arc card (B580, A770, A750, A380 and the rest) and your CPU, and it goes through your whole Steam library and shows, per game:

  • estimated FPS at your resolution and quality, with the best settings to hit a target framerate
  • whether the CPU or the GPU is the bottleneck in that game
  • a "Can I run it?" page per game with FPS across many GPUs, so you can see where your Arc card lands

How the numbers work, so you know what you are looking at: they come from each game's requirements plus a performance model, and where I have real measured benchmark data the estimate is calibrated against it. Each number is labelled "Benchmark" (corrected against measured data) or "Estimate" (requirements-based, can be off), so you always know which is which.

Where I would really like Arc owners' help: Arc is the thinnest part of my benchmark data, so if a number looks off for your exact card and a game you know, tell me the card, the game and your real FPS. Owners can report measured FPS right on the site, and that feeds straight back into the calibration for Arc specifically.

Made a free tool that estimates FPS per game across Steam Deck, ROG Ally and Legion Go, plus Proton and anti-cheat status

Built this because comparing handhelds game by game was a pain: you never really know if a specific game hits a playable framerate on a Deck vs an Ally vs a Legion Go until you own one.

What it does for handhelds:

  • Point it at your whole Steam library (or just search one game) and for each game it shows the handheld-typical FPS at the usual settings (low + FSR, 1280x800), side by side for Steam Deck, ROG Ally and Legion Go.
  • Steam Deck Verified status and the ProtonDB rating for Linux, so you know if a game even launches.
  • Whether the anti-cheat actually works on the Deck, since that is what kills a lot of multiplayer titles on Linux. The Ally and Legion Go run Windows, so they clear those anti-cheat games the Deck will not.
  • No account, nothing to install.

Honest about the limits: for well-known Deck titles I use community-typical real-world figures, and everything else is a requirements-based estimate calibrated against benchmarks where I have them. It is a guide, not a promise, and it can be off, which is exactly why I want handheld owners to check it.

What would genuinely help:

  • For games you actually play on your Deck or Ally, how close are the FPS figures?
  • Any game where the Verified, Proton or anti-cheat status looks wrong?

Free tool: find your CPU/GPU bottleneck and the best settings to hit a target FPS across your whole Steam library

I built a free web tool and wanted to share it with people who actually care about squeezing performance out of their hardware. No ads, no account, nothing to install. (Link's in the first comment.)

The optimization-relevant parts:

- For any game it shows which part is actually holding you back (CPU, GPU, VRAM or RAM), so you optimize the right thing instead of guessing.

- It works out the best-looking settings (quality preset + DLSS/FSR/XeSS) that still hit a target framerate you pick, per game and resolution.

- A standalone bottleneck calculator: drop in a CPU + GPU and see which one limits the other across real games, and at which resolution the balance flips.

- It can scan your whole Steam library at once and flag which games are GPU-bound vs CPU-bound, plus Steam Deck / handheld figures and Linux/Proton + anti-cheat status.

Honest about the limits: the FPS figures are estimates derived from each game's requirements and calibrated against real benchmarks and player reports where I have them. A guide, not a benchmark, so it can be off, which is exactly why I want this crowd to check it.

What would genuinely help the community and me:

- For hardware you own, do the bottleneck calls and FPS look right? If something's clearly off, tell me the game + your GPU/CPU and I'll dig into why and fix the model.

- Any setting/upscaling recommendation that looks wrong for a game you know well?

Hab ein kostenloses Tool gebaut, das die FPS für deine ganze Steam-Bibliothek schätzt (nachdem meine Graka abgeraucht ist)

Vor ein paar Monaten ist mir die Grafikkarte gestorben. Während ich auf Ersatz gespart und billigere Karten verglichen habe, wollte ich wissen, welche meiner Spiele auf welcher Karte überhaupt noch vernünftig laufen. Die üblichen Seiten lassen dich das immer nur Spiel für Spiel prüfen, und ich hab ein paar hundert Spiele in der Bibliothek. Also hab ich mir selbst was gebaut.

Du verbindest dein Steam-Profil (oder suchst einfach ein einzelnes Spiel) und es schätzt für jedes Spiel die FPS, in 1080p, 1440p und 4K, mit verschiedenen Einstellungen. Es zeigt dir auch die günstigste aktuelle Grafikkarte, die ein Spiel mit 60 FPS packt.

Kostenlos, kein Login, nichts zu installieren. Es gibt optional einen kleinen Detektor, der deine genaue Hardware ausliest, aber das ist freiwillig, du kannst deine Teile auch einfach aus einer Liste wählen.

Ehrlich dazu: das sind Schätzungen aus den Spiel-Anforderungen plus einem Rechenmodell, keine echten Benchmarks auf deinem PC, also können sie danebenliegen. Wo ich echte Benchmark-Daten habe, kalibriere ich damit, und jeder Wert zeigt, wie sicher er ist. Eigenes, kostenloses Projekt, mit Affiliate-Links wenn du was kaufst, ohne Paywall.

Ich poste das vor allem, weil ich es genauer machen will. Wenn ein Wert für ein Spiel, das du gut kennst, falsch aussieht, sag mir Bescheid.

A free web app that estimates the FPS for every game in your Steam library

My graphics card died a while back, and while I was looking for a cheap replacement I had no way to tell which of my games would actually run well on whatever I could afford. Steam's min/recommended specs don't answer the real question, which is how many FPS you'll get on your own hardware. So I built a web app that checks a whole Steam library against your PC and gives real numbers per game. Runs entirely in the browser, nothing to install.

Made it solo and did a lot of the coding with Claude (the AI) helping.

You're not forced into anything: there's an optional Steam login and optional hardware auto-detection, or you can just paste your public Steam profile and pick your GPU and CPU from a list.

It estimates FPS per game for your exact GPU and CPU at any resolution and settings (720p up to 4K and ultrawide, low to ultra, DLSS/FSR/XeSS), tells you what bottlenecks each game (GPU, CPU, RAM or VRAM), shows Steam Deck and Linux/ProtonDB status, compares two libraries for co-op, and has a budget mode plus an upgrade simulator. Filters and CSV export too.

Free, only money side is affiliate links in the optional PC builder. Link in the comments. Feedback very welcome, especially on accuracy.

I made a free tool that estimates the FPS for every game in your Steam library – no login, no download

So my graphics card actually died on me a while back, and while I was figuring out what to replace it with on a budget, I kept hitting the same wall: I had no idea which of my games would actually run okay on whatever card I could afford. The min/recommended specs on Steam never tell you the thing you care about, which is how many FPS you'll really get on your own hardware. I couldn't find anything that just checked my whole library at once and gave me real numbers, so I ended up building it myself. It's only been live a few days.

Quick honesty bit: I'm not a studio, I made this on my own and did a lot of the coding with Claude (the AI) helping me. Happy to talk about that if anyone's curious.

One thing I really cared about: you're never forced into anything. There's an optional Steam login and optional hardware auto-detection if you want the quick path, but you don't have to use either. You can just paste your public Steam profile or type your games in and pick your GPU and CPU from a list yourself. No download needed to get going.

What it does: it estimates the FPS for each game for your exact GPU and CPU, at whatever resolution and settings you want (720p up to 4K and ultrawide, low to ultra, plus DLSS/FSR/XeSS). It also tells you what's holding each game back for you (graphics card, CPU, RAM or VRAM), shows Steam Deck and Linux/ProtonDB status, and lets you compare two libraries to see which co-op games you and a friend can both run.

There's also a "what can I afford" mode where you type a budget and it shows games that fit and run well, and an upgrade thing where you punch in a dream build and see the FPS difference per game. Plus filters and CSV export.

It's free, the only money side is affiliate links in the optional PC-builder part. I'll drop the link in the comments so this doesn't trip the spam filter. Would love to know if the FPS numbers match what you actually get on your rig.
