I am testing a new computer (Yoga 720) and am getting really strange results with MSI Afterburner, Steam, and Nvidia GeForce experience when trying to monitor FPS in Doom. For example, with MSI Afterburner no matter what settings/resolution I use I get about 30-40FPS and the GPU usage never goes above 50%. Steam says about 16 FPS and GoForce always says 0 FPS. I'm not a gamer and this is all new to me but I want to try it and make sure there is nothing wrong with the 1050 2GB video card.

Anyone know what monitoring application is being used in this video (shows at about 1:00)? I've seen it in several videos now but nobody states what it is in the description or video itself. Thanks!

It kinda just looks like a skin for RivaTuner. But cant say for sure.

I would trust the results from Afterburner first. That is directly from your GPU while the others are simply what is being screen captured.

Did you happen to remove and old drivers before installing new ones? maybe try using DDU to uninstall every single driver old and new and then reinstall with new only?

What system are you using?

What is your settings in Doom? Doom is one of the few games that can use Vulkan. If you have Vulkan enabled and you a running an Nvida system. You may get different results. Vulkan is great but that is an AMD feature set. It is still also being worked on so it isnt perfect.

In Doom try changing your settings to not use Vulkan, or if it is currently not using it. Try turning it on.

As for monitor tools. I normally go with Fraps or Steam as well. Can't really think of anything else that would be accurate for your testing.

That feature in the video appears to be Afterburner. There is a monitor service you can turn on to show that.

In Afterburner click on options>monitoring and enabled "show in on-screen display" and select the hardware you want to monitor. You need to make sure during the installation of afterburner that RivaTurnner Statistics Server is enabled.

It is a Lenovo Yoga 720 with 16Gb ram/1080 screen/7700HQ/1050 2GB card. I tried Vulkan but it was also giving odd results. It's like no matter what application I've tried to monitor frames per second, the results are all over the place. The monitoring app in that video I referenced looks great with the graphs and I'd love to try that one. I tried experimenting with Afterburner but it looks different and doesn't give all that same info (graphs etc.) so it seems like a different application.

Also, graphic drivers are up to date and bios, etc.
