Nvidia updates FrameView performance measurement tool — version 1.7 promises accurate results even at 800+ FPS

Nvidia updates FrameView performance measurement tool — version 1.7 promises accurate results even at 800+ FPS

Also, given there's no indication otherwise, FrameView 1.7 likely still relies on PresentMon 2.2 as its foundation, a version that is now 1.5 years old, too. The most up-to-date PresentMon 2.4.1 includes many bug fixes and adds many additional metrics, including a number of telemetry improvements for Intel Arc cards. Assuming it hasn't already, Nvidia will likely roll a newer version of PresentMon into a future version of FrameView, whenever it might arrive.

As a largely mature application with a small user base, FrameView probably won't see too many major changes to its basic functionality going forward, but there are some things that could still be added. Its PC Latency reporting is the most solid software estimation of that figure across vendors, in our experience, and that data is extremely handy when making performance tuning decisions with MFG.

If Nvidia made it easier to split out generated frames from native frames, as only the Steam performance overlay reliably does right now, FrameView would likely become more interesting as a general-purpose performance monitoring tool in the framegen era.
