How to Show an FPS Counter in Steam Games
If there’s one thing PC gamers all seem to agree on, it’s that knowing your FPS (frames per second) is important. It’s how enthusiasts measure the performance of their hardware and optimizations, and it can actually give you an edge over the competition in competitive shooters.
