Frame rates compare runs of the same game at the same quality preset on one test system. DLAA counts as native resolution, because it applies anti-aliasing at full render resolution rather than upscaling; DLSS and FSR upscaling are never counted as native. Where a capture named ray tracing without a readable on or off value, it is read as on.
