    I am going to stick with SUBLIME, FRAPs is a great program and doesn't take much in the way of resources. It will tell you real-time what the FPS is. :)

    i have had problems with ati tray tool..where it would freeze my computer when i plugged it into power/unplugged it..

    i would suggest fraps, as it doubles as a recorder, and you can make videos.

    pb,out.
