Hi everyone, a few days ago I installed razer game booster simply for the job of showing the fps of a game in the upper left corner. I had the 'game booster' mode turned off and did not use the recording function of it either. 

I had no problems with the program until running Minecraft and to surprise was only getting around 35 - 40 fps with my current rig, I knew something was wrong so I disabled some background programs including razer game booster and it shot up to 100+ fps? This is no fluke as I retried opening and closing razer game booster and it did the same thing?? Does this mean that razer game booster was doing the opposite of its job?

My questionas are why did this happen? What made it happen? Should I still use Razer Game Booster to show the fps of a game? What are some other good programs that can show the fps of a game you are playing?

Free version of Fraps works perfectly. Also, on my other cheap laptop, Razer Game Booster did give me some problems with steam, so I suggest you uninstall it before it starts causing problems.

Exact same thing with me.

in minecraft use fraps or f3. if there is a command line option use that to avoid performance loss, eg BF3 uses "render.drawfps 1"
