    Too bad. I was expecting to have such software, it's nice and simple.

    yeah, that's built-in. if you want more comprehensive stats then RTSS with HWInfo will do you good.

    I use CAM's built in FPS overlay software, but I like that Overwatch FPS overlay better.

    What I like about RTSS when paired with Hwinfo is that you can display all sorts of stats like power usage in watts of the CPU and GPU.

    I know. However I'm looking for aesthetically appealing non-intrusive FPS overlay and RTSS + Hwinfo is intrusive imo.

    But anyways, thank you for the suggestion.

    theoretically you could rebuild something like that with RTSS too with HWInfo like @thegh0sts mentioned or with MSI AB, takes a bit of fiddling around but it should work and look almost the same.

    ^_^ mine is a little intrusive but I've sort of got used to it. MSI Afterburner + RTSS + Hwinfo32

    Unfortunately I'm not familiar when it comes to tinkering with software like that. If anyone can do it for me I'm willing to donate.

    All my settings are here, if you like the osd settings from Hwinfo64 just install last version and then merge the attached .reg config files,

    RTSS and MSI Afterburner must be configured and set individually as in my screenshot settings and then let go in background all three software together, or take a look for some walktrough on the web.

    Instead of lunch a game, use GPU-Z "render test" to check all OSD info and position in realtime

    I really like what you have done here. Frame Time is what I am after. A real time display like this is very freaking cool. I am fairly familar with RTTS and HWInfo.

    Rep to you sir!

    How did you get that Frame Time graph?

    From MSI Afterburner ver 4.4.0 beta 11,

    on "Properties" menu, in "Monitoring" Tab, scroll down to find Framerate & Frametime as in pic posted and check it to see on OSD

    i have to actualy revert my previous statement about recreating the Overwatch style Overlay, i wanted to actually recreate it myself and sent you the changes i did, but sadly i noticed it isn't easily able to get e.g. GPU 66 °C | MEM 1643 MB, in the same line, tried several methods including MSI AB and HWINFO64, even looked into NZXT CAM but there you can't even customize it to your liking.

    I got this to work just like you said. For some reason the GPU-Z render test does not like this. Works in-game though.

    You won't get "clock" and "mem" to show up in the line, but I can make it in one line, yes. In any order I want.
