Hi guys! 
 
Not sure if this is the accurate spot for this, but figured I'd give it a shot.
Trying to use Precision X1 for tracking FPS in Rainmeter, but was having some issues doing it. My current setup uses MSI Afterburner, but I'd prefer it to run Precision X1 as it's redundant to have two programs running, as I use Precision X1 for overclocking.
 
In my Rainmeter skin, this is what it has to track FPS:
 
[measureFPS]
Measure=Plugin
Plugin=MSIAfterburner
DataSource=Framerate
MinValue=0
MaxValue=144
 
If I replace MSIAfterburner with EVGAPrecision, it doesn't take or show FPS. Any suggestions on how to potentially fix this? Any help is appreciated!! I'll keep digging around. Thanks!

    Good luck!  Someone needs to create a plugin for Rainmeter for it to work.

    I use HWinfo64, but it doesn't track FPS that I know of. I use it to track CPU/GPU temps and clocks, RAM/VRAM use, etc. If there's a way to get it to do FPS, I'm not aware of it.

    I found one that someone had made here on the forums, but it's 5 or 6 years old. lol Not really sure what I'd need to do to update it.

    It doesn't work for the current Precision.  The old Precision from 6 years ago was made by Unwinder (the same guy who makes MSI Afterburner) and both the old Precision and MSI Afterburner use/can use Rivatuner Statistics Server.  The new Precision (within the previous 6 years) was totally recreated by a totally different team of people and does not work the same.
     
    You could try Rivatuner Statistics Server on its own and see if it works.  I have no idea.  I have never tried Rivatuner Statistics Server on its own.
     
     
    Why don't you just keep using MSI Afterburner?
     
    I have no idea how to create a Rainmeter plugin either.  I am sure that someone could.  But seeing that Precision declined so much in quality after Unwinder left, I don't know if there are very many people interested in even supporting it.

    Mine has FPS in it. Scroll to the very bottom and its just after the WHEA errors stuff.

    I don't see it in mine, and I double checked to make sure it's the latest updated version. Whea errors is the last thing on the list.
