Benchmark status

Not yet measured. Bottleneck Verdict adds a game to the calculator when published review benchmarks cover both sides at the game's highest settings, native resolution, no upscaling — the same bar the measured games met. Until then this page claims no performance figures for Garry's Mod.

Games that are measured today: browse the catalog — measured games are listed first, each with its measured CPU ceilings and GPU results by resolution, plus clearly labelled estimates for parts that were not measured.
