How to display FPS?

[Driftkel]

I just installed a new GPU to play PC games with and I'm considering on recording some "benchmark" videos of certain games.

There are some games that enables FPS to be shown, but there are others that don't have this option. Which program is best for displaying frames per second?

PC Specs:
-Windows 10 (64-bit OS)
-XFX AMD Radeon RX 460 4GB GDDR5 (Single Fan)
-AMD Athlon II X4 640 Processor
-4 GB of System Memory
-4096 MB of Memory Size
-1220 MHz of Core Clock

The specs came from AMD Radeon Settings.

In the steam in-game settings there is an option to display fps.
But those youtube videos are done with msi afterburner and riva tuner.
Recording can chew up cpu.

Yea steam has fps counter try that, use the high contrast setting for it also

Only one problem: when using the high contrast setting to show the fps counter, it does not show when I'm recording with OBS. Is this normal or can it be fixable?

This is normal along with other recording softwares. The recording software only records the game app excluding Steam. Try desktop mode if you want it shown.
