General Discussion • Re: rainmeter fps cpu gpu

Hello,

Is there a way to display the frames without MSI Afterburner?

Regards

Like SilverAzide mentioned, HWINFO64 and MSI AB are the most comprehensive tools to get such data (and other "low level" ones as well).The former is generally compatible with more devices (MSI AB might provide data for fewer hardware than HWINFO64), the latter is more system independent in terms of syntax (e.g. the IDs / indexes / registry keys one uses in HWINFO64 to get data are almost always different from how another user sets them on his system, while the MSI AB plugin references hardware in a much more generic fashion, that will work on any system, assuming it's supported).

For the record, to have the FPS yield non zero values, you'd normally need to have some D3D program run (e.g. a windowed game, some video processing or capturing software, a browser running some graphical or 3D stuff, etc). The FPS is rarely (if any) different than 0 if you just stare at the Windows desktop with nothing actually using your GPU in a more intensive way.
