The simplest way to show FPS in CS:GO is:

2. Type "cl_showfps 1" and press Enter
3. To hide it again, type "cl_showfps 0"

Method 2: Using Net Graph

For more detailed information including FPS:

Method 3: Steam Overlay

You can also use Steam's built-in FPS counter:

2. Go to Steam > Settings > In-Game
3. Under "In-game FPS counter," select your preferred corner
4. Click "OK" to save

Customizing FPS Display

To modify how your FPS is shown:

1. For a simpler display: Use "cl_showfps 1"
2. For detailed stats: Use "net_graph 1"
3. To adjust net_graph position: Use "net_graphpos 1" (values 0-3)
4. To change net_graph height: Use "net_graphheight 64" (adjust number as needed)

Troubleshooting

If FPS isn't showing:

1. Verify that the console is enabled in game settings
2. Check if "-console" is in your launch options
3. Make sure you're typing the commands correctly
4. Restart the game if commands aren't working

Remember, showing FPS can help you monitor your game's performance and identify potential performance issues. Choose the method that works best for your needs while causing minimal distraction during gameplay.
