Special K vs TargetFPS

Special K has no write-up on Specifiction yet; its figures are above.

TargetFPS is a free web tool that recommends graphics settings for individual games based on a player's hardware and desired framerate. Enter a GPU, CPU, RAM, resolution, and target framerate to receive settings, estimated FPS, explanations, impact tags, and a callout of major performance gains. The optimizer starts from a high-quality preset and changes individual settings to meet the target, weighing visual quality against each setting's estimated FPS cost. The games directory covers 60 titles with per-setting recommendations, costs, expected results across five hardware tiers, and data-quality notes. Estimates use published benchmark points and interpolation for hardware without direct measurements. Some games use engine-family modelling instead, and the maker says those estimates have a wider confidence band. The optimizer considers DLSS, FSR, and XeSS as primary settings and treats frame generation separately, noting its latency trade-off. JavaScript is required for the interactive optimizer, while static game guides are available without it. The service is free, and optional contributions do not unlock features.
