  Now I can stare nervously at the fps for 70% of my game time, like I do on the Deck.

    Man… This right here is a huge part of why I decided to try going back to consoles after being a PC only gamer for like 20+ years

      Why not just… turn it off?

      I understand everybody here is being really annoying and repeating the same thing over and over again to you. But real question: you are aware that all of these overlays and readouts are optional, correct? It’s a pretty extreme reason to flip from PCs to console.

      I’m assuming you’re being facetious or there were other reasons, but figured it was worth mentioning on the off chance that you’re serious

      Why not just… not look at it?

      Why not just ignore it

      I think I understand your overall sentiment. Just wanna boot up games and not think about settings, compatibility, framerates and stuff. I know what you mean.

  Being able to see your actual performance versus your framegen performance is actually pretty cool.

  Steam already has an FPS monitor, right? I think that’s enough for 95% of everything (and it’s very unobtrusive).

    I like the info on my steam deck when emulating.
    Very nice to have *and you have the option to still only use the fps counter)

  Seems convenient, I never really felt assed to install and set up additional tools but this being built into the Steam client would make this kind of thing more likely for me to use.

  That being said 95% of my games are going to tell me to upgrade my RTX 2050…

  This is my in game performance monitor.

  Does it feel smooth? Yep! Keep playing.

  I hope it doesn’t impact my game performance 🤔

  Im not sure I like the cpu utilization being based on the base clock. A percentage that can go arbitrarily above 100 doesn't sound useful for determining bottlenecks. It must be difficult to accurately determine given all the dynamic boost stuff but since all other such utilities figured it out surely they can too. Hope they don't just leave this is as good enough.

  I’ve been using game bar but I guess this might be less obtrusive?

  Neat!

  Imma just stick to MangoHud cause it works with Games Outside of Steam.
