How to see your FPS in games?

[Prestonian]

Hello, I'm trying to find out what kind of performance my card is giving (MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti) while playing games but I have not got a clue how to do it. While playing games other people talk about how many FPS they're getting, but I'm yet to discover how to find my FPS for myself.

Games I play(ed) are BF3, DayZ and BF2 Project Reality Mod.

Cheers.

MSI afterburner has FPS monitoring.

You just need to go into the settings and enable it.

You can also download Fraps for free, http://www.fraps.com/download.php

Two programs that are highly reccomended are FRAPS and msi afterburner. Both can be set to show fps in game, afterburner will also display things such as.

gpu usage
memory usage
gpu voltage
fan speed

It's also a great program for graphics card overclocking.

I wouldn't know where to start, is it easy to overclock?

And running afterburner alongside the games won't cause a problem? I'll see about doing it tonight. Cheers.

That's the thing people use to make videos isn't it? Does the free version allow you to record your in-game game-play?

The free version only allows 30 second recording.

Fraps always worked perfectly fine for me.

EVGA Precision works perfectly fine too for monitoring your GPU "everything"
