Go to settings - Monitoring Tab - Check off Framerate - Check the box that says Show in On-Screen Display.

In the settings look for the option to set the overlay hotkey to toggle it on and off. And it will only work in a game not on the desktop

I have the exact same GPU and have no problems with MSI Afterburner OSD.

 

In the settings of Afterburner:

Monitoring>Framerate

Tick the "Show in On-Screen Display" then apply.

Did you install "RivaTuner Statistics Server"?,It comes with MSI Afterburner and is required for the OSD to work.

Works in almost all games, but some games block overlays. Make sure you have a key selected to toggle the overlay on or off under the OSD tab

no, it should work for every game, but maybe it doesnt work with certain games, depends on the compatibility, i'm gonna re test destiny 2 and see if it works with it.

now go to the on screen display window ->Toggle OSD and setup your hotkey, and once you are ingame, use your hotkey and it should come up.

it depends more on the game itself and less on the provider of the game
