Benchmark Your PC in Real Games

Why stress-test your GPU or CPU with fake workloads? HowManyFPS measures your real FPS, temps, and hardware usage while you play your actual games, not synthetic scores that mean nothing when you launch Cyberpunk.

Built to be invisible, under 1% CPU usage, never touches your GPU pipeline. Your frame rate stays exactly the same whether HowManyFPS is running or not.
