To get your FPS to show up in CS:GO, you can use the Steam overlay. Just go into your Steam settings, head to the 'In-Game' tab, and check the 'In-Game FPS counter' box. You can also choose where on the screen you want it to appear. Quick and easy!

Another way without using Steam's overlay is to activate the developer console in CS:GO. First, enable it in the game settings. Once you've done that, press the `~` key to bring it up during a game and type 'cl_showfps 1'. Your FPS will now display in the corner of your screen. If you ever want to hide it, just type 'cl_showfps 0'.

cl_showfps 1 is all you need. Anything else is overkill unless you're troubleshooting or really into your system's performance metrics.

Honestly, just download a third-party software. Many out there give you way more details than just FPS. You can see temps, usage percentages, and more. But be careful, pick a reputable one to avoid any nasty surprises.
