Tarkov FPS Display Information
Each number in the display window reports a different statistic that you can use to analyse your game performance. The details of each of these is included below for the basic (fps 1) mode as these are the most useful to debugging and optimisation within Tarkov’s offline mode or during raid and is small enough it won’t interfere with gameplay.
The following numbers are available in basic (fps 1) mode:
- Limit: Displays your set FPS limit from the Tarkov graphic settings menu which can be set independently for menus and in raid.
- FPS: Shows the Tarkov FPS counter that will constantly update with your frames per second.
- RTT: Stands for Round Trip Time which is similar to ping in other games as it displays the time taken for your information to be sent and acknowledged by the server. This is impacted by things like Tarkov server selection and your own internet service provider (ISP).
- Loss: Shows the amount of packet loss you have which can impact the information you are sending to the Tarkov server.
- PlayerRTT: Similar to RTT this will show a higher number as it includes the time taken for the server to update for the information you have sent it.
When in advanced (fps 2) mode the following additional information is provided to the player in the window:
- Average fuFPS (yellow)
- fuFPS
- Average fuFPS (white)
- Single fuFPS:
- fuPD
- Update
- GameUpdate
- Render, ms
- Frame, ms
- Buffer count
