If you have the feeling that your games are jerky, you can display the FPS in the game and control the game speed. You will need either Steam or another gaming tool. We present both programs in more detail.
Steam: Show FPS in the game
You do not need any additional software for games that you bought via the Steam platform. Steam has already integrated the necessary function:
- Start Steam on your computer and click on "Display" in the menu bar.
- Then select the "Settings" entry.
- In the new window, switch to the "In game" tab and set the desired position under "FPS display in game".
- Finally save your changes with "OK".
Show FPS count in all games
If you don't use Steam, you don't have to do without an FPS ad. With the free tool "Fraps" you can display the information at any time:
- Install the recording program and start it.
- Switch to the "FPS" tab and activate the option of the same name in the "Benchmark Settings" section.
- Then start the desired game, display the number of FPS with [F11].
- Note: For your FPS number to be displayed, "Fraps" must run in the background all the time. On request, you can also activate the autostart in the "General" tab.
