- Update #5510 - Support for new hardware - 13 March 2025
A small update #5510 with support for new hardware: Added support for Nvidia RTX 5000, Radeon RX 9070, Radeon RX 9070 XT, etc. Fixes for all OpenGL games.
- Update #5500 - Working with EAC games, FPS limiter hotkey - 18 October 2024
Hi. We're here with some good news for you! The most interesting aspect of this update is that FPS Monitor can once again work with games that use Easy Anti-Cheat. We have prepared a special workaround that allows us to inject our DLL, signed with an old digital certificate that is whitelisted by EAC. Now the issue is resolved for Rust, Fortnite, War Thunder, Apex Legends, Hunt: Showdown 1896, THE FINALS, ELDEN RING, Throne and Liberty, Dead by Daylight, and other EAC-based games. Reminder: We updated our digital code signing certificate in February, and it should be whitelisted by Easy Anti-Cheat for our program to work with their games. Unfortunately, after their transition to EPIC, we lost all contacts with their employees and have been unable to reach anyone :( Is it dangerous? Not at all. FPS Monitor simply operates as the old whitelisted version when encountering any EAC-based gam…
- Build #5490 - A small, but important update - 25 June 2024
Changelog for this update #5490: Added and improved support for the latest hardware Fixed not visible by default AMD GPU 78xx, 79xx Core Clock and Voltage Fixed bad localization of the Benchmark extension Fixed wrong alert colors for fractional values Fixed bug where hook dll was not unloaded after closing the main application Fixed incorrect application size on startup when display DPI is not 100% Vulkan support for Suyu, Yuzu, RPCS3 emulators Added a global hotkey to enable/disable "Mirrors to Desktop" overlays (widgets) Attention! The digital code signature has been updated in this version and EAC anti-cheat has not yet whitelisted it, so some games with this anti-cheat will not display overlays. Use our new widget «Add special» - «Mirror to Desktop Advanced» over regular overlays or use the previous version 5472 on the beta branch «oldsign».
- Build #5472 - Sensors update and new Mirror to Desktop Advanced overlay - 14 November 2023
Changelog for this update #5472: Hardware access module is updated to access the latest PC hardware (Nvidia RTX 4000, AMD CPU and GPU 7000 series etc) Fixed monitoring of legacy CPU Usage on Windows 11. You are no longer required to use alternative CPU Utility sensors as in version #5440 Added DDR5 memory temperature sensors «SPD Hub Temperature». You can add them in the MEM tab when SMBus support is enabled in advanced settings Improved performance with Vulkan apps and games Added a new special overlay «Mirror to Desktop Advanced» (upgrade for the original «Mirror to Desktop» overlay). This overlay allows to draw over desktop and fullscreen games, even anti-cheat protected like Destiny 2, CS2, Battlefield 2042, etc. The only thing it cannot do is to draw over Vulkan powered fullscreen games. Also it is impossible to get process specific information (like FPS) using this overlay because…
- Build #5440 - Minor update for hardware sensors - 13 September 2022

If you see the difference between FPS Monitor and Task Manager, try to use this sensor instead of default. https://i.imgur.com/fxizPJf.png
- New release #5435 - Chagelog - 21 August 2022
Hello everyone! This minor update fixes incompatibilities with some games, for example Apex Legends, as well as changes from the last beta 5420: We found the cause of the problems with Escape from Tarkov Compatibility fixes with UWP games Added and improved support for new hardware
- We found the reason for the incompatibility with Escape from Tarkov - 29 December 2021
Hello boys and girls! If you play EFT then this information will be useful for you. We've received reports of overlays disappearing after a few minutes of mission gameplay. They disappeared only in PvP mode and not in PvE. A lot of tests and experiments haven't shown anything useful :( Everything should work without any problems, but it doesn't work... We tried to ask the developers about this issue and they claimed that they do not block our software. EFT uses BattlEye anti-cheat and our FPS Monitor is in its white list. Hopeless situation... We have tried the last idea and it worked! FPS Monitor injects its own DLL into a game process for interception of GPU rendering and adding its own overlays (as all overlays software do). Our DLLs are named fpsmon32.dll (for 32-bits games) and fpsmon64.dll (for 64-bits games as EFT). We've prepared a new build with renamed DLLs and tested this new…
