FPS meter is enabled, but not displayed
Sometimes you can encounter a situation where the number of frames per second is not displayed, although everything is done according to the instructions. In most cases, this problem calls the RivaTuner Statistic Server, which is included with AfterBurner - the fact is that this application is just responsible for displaying data in real time, and with problems with it there are different faults with the display of counters and graphs. Sometimes it happens that the solution may display the FPS in some games, but refuse to work in others - most likely the reason for the incompatibility of the game and RivaTuner. In such a situation, you can either report the problem on the MSI official forum and wait until the developer releases correction, or use an alternative program.
