Any recommended overlays to display GPU/CPU?

[DelTacoBoi]

Anyone have any recommended Overlay programs that display your GPU/CPU usage, temp, etc while in game? Specifically one that does not destroy performance with heavy background processes? I was using Riva Tuner but I uninstalled all programs in an attempted to help clean up background processes on my PC.

msi afterburner

I was using afterburner but i uninstalled that. Afterburner also uses Riva Tuner for the in game overlay which is what I was using before.

Yeah, not a good option anymore. It's notorious for crashing DX12 games in a way that makes it look like a driver problem.

 

Unfortunately there really aren't many options for this sort of display. Where FPS counters are common, actual useful metrics are rare. If you do find one, please let me know.

I only use MSI Afterburner.

Only use precision xoc. Doesn’t get cpu usage but it’s easy for me to notice when it’s bad. Or just keep task manager open and look later or on  another monitor. 

 

Thought fraps did it all. Think that’s what a lot of youtubers use.

hmm the Windows 10 game bar.. Might do temp.. They have been adding new things in but have not checked it out myself for a bit.
 

Just press Windows key + G

Worth a look.

Ah no just checked at the moment it just gives you a performance %  temp will prob come in a future update.
