Program to display FPS on second monitor?

Just wanted to ask if there was a program that existed that displayed the FPS of the first monitor somewhere on the second monitor. This is just because I like seeing my FPS but all counters get in the way somehow, whether it be HUD elements or the beautiful scenery.

I know that this is a really specific need, but I think that it is something that should exist, given how multi-monitor setups have become sort of a standard now.

Preferably something that updated as fast as FRAPS does but on a second monitor, basically.

Thanks!

AIDA64 can do this through the use of the OSD-function. It actually uses Fraps to get the fps, though, so you got to have Fraps running (but you can hide the counter in Fraps itself). You can choose how often it updates.

The solution is a bit overkill, but at least it's an option. https://www.aida64.com/

What are you using second monitor for? Like are you gaming on first one and have something else on the second one or are you splitting the game over both monitors and having trouble positioning in game counters on the right screen?

Sorry, probably should have included that in the original post. I only use the second monitor for things like YouTube, Spotify and whatever else - I have a 144hz panel as my main monitor for games, would be a nightmare on my eyes to spread it across that and the 60hz one :p I'll try the AIDA solution, as I already have it. Come back soon
