In their own words
NVIDIA FrameView
NVIDIA FrameView is a free Windows utility for measuring graphics performance, latency, and power use. It records frame rates, frame times, power, and performance per watt, and can capture PC latency alongside FPS without additional hardware. A configurable overlay shows live metrics, while benchmark results are saved to log files. FrameView uses PresentMon for analytics and supports single-GPU systems from NVIDIA, AMD, and Intel. Supported graphics APIs include DirectX 9–12, OpenGL, and Vulkan. It can capture Universal Windows Platform apps and applications running full-screen or windowed. Power reporting differs by manufacturer: NVIDIA GPUs provide chip and board measurements, while AMD GPUs provide chip power only. Correct AMD power measurement requires PCAT or another interposer setup. Windows 10 and later are supported. DX9 and DX10 games do not show the overlay, although their capture data is logged. NVIDIA also lists Battlefield 6 anticheat as incompatible with the overlay. The redesigned overlay requires Multi-Plane Overlay support, and presentation latency can increase when MPO is unavailable or disabled.
