What’s the program that youtubers use to benchmark their PCs?

    RivaTuner, often in conjunction with MSI Afterburner. Afterburner will offer to install RivaTuner when you install it.

  2. NotJustBibbit

    MSI Afterburner gives you a prompt to download River Tuner

  3. The program that displays is Riva Tuner Statistics Server

    The numbers and parameters it draws from are likely MSI Afterburner which iirc comes **with** RTSS?

    In any case if you want to have a better and more custom display, I would suggest you install RTSS standalone and also install HWinfo64 (monitoring software). Use Hwinfo to output to a running RivaTuner, anything you want in any position you want it.

  4. UlteriorMotive66

    That’s RivaTuner addon used alongside MSI Afterburner.

    There are some other useful hardware monitoring tools like CPU-Z, GPU-Z, CrystalDiskInfo, HWiNFO if ur interested!

    Good people above me already gave you the answer, I’m just here to give me 2 cents:

    I’ve been using Afterburner/RTSS/HWinfo64 for years, but I did have some weird points of struggle (Vulkan games not always detecting FPS, in some games the OSD looks weird, etc), and also the set up is not completely foolproof or straightforward.

    My warm suggestion, if you’re on AMD just use Radeon Settings’ Overlay. Super easy to setup and has most or all of the info you need.

    On Windows Afterburner. On Linux MangoHud. Same look and function

  7. as many others have mentioned it’s RivaRuner but I personally recommend nvidia frameview. i find the ui to be less invasive and i like the default font it uses.

  8. Not a benchmark. Just indicator of some stats (Afterburner/RivaTuner Statistics Server overlay)

    Note that overlays like this can sometimes cause conflicts and even driver crashes. Be sure to have up to date version or you will have endless issues…

    Riva Tunner. I do not recommend to use it with AMD when Overclocked cuz it fucks up the settings. Use AMD built in overlay, it’s good enough

    Either RivaTuner (for windows), or Mangohud (for steam deck/Linux)

  11. Kind of reminds me of FPS monitor on steam.
