On Screen FPS/CPU Temp

Featured Replies

I recently saw a MSFS video that displayed FPS, CPU temp, and Memory usage on screen - can anyone tell me what the utility that does it is called?

It's MSI Afterburner.

Intel Core i9 13900K, NVidia RTX 4090 FE, Corsair Vengeance DDR5 64GB@6000MHz, Samsung 990 Pro 2TB NVMe M2, Asus OLED PG42 UQ

I use CoreTemp to show my CPU core temperatures on the task bar and Afterburner to show my GPU temperature on the task bar.

Whilst I normally run in full screen and can't see them, if I have any issues or suspect high temperatures, I switch to windowed mode to quickly see what my temps are looking like and quickly back again using Alt+Enter.

Since I have fitted a cooler to my 5800X3D my temps are much lower, though at times my RTX380 can hit its 83° throttle speed, especially in warmer weather or I am running with higher TLOD levels and its fans running like the clappers.

Search for "On Screen FPS" on Youtube and you will find all information how to download and setup MSI Afterburner+RTSS.

If you have a Stream Deck there is an excellent HWINFO plugin, I have a page setup where I monitor all my hardware and then in each aircraft page I have a FPS counter & GPU Usage.

I have nothing showing in MSFS anymore

Thanks Guys - all good suggestions. I do have a Stream Deck, but almost all the time apart from setting up a flight, I'm in VR. But I suppose I could position it somewhere low down, so I could take the occasional "peek", by lifting the headset a tad.

I should have mentioned that I'm in VR in the initial post - would MSI still work?

I use MSI Afterburner with RTSS. Also I’ve made a couple of key binds for toggling overlay on/off and locking fps on/off. Credit goes to Noel for suggesting that.
