FRAPS to Make a Comeback with Windows 10 Support
The popular frame-rate overlay, screengrab and recording utility FRAPS is set to make a comeback. The new version 3.6.0 comes with official Windows 10 support, with support for all of the utility's nifty features. FRAPS developer Beepa did not comment on when they plan to release version 3.6.0, only stating that they "hope to have it available as soon as possible," and that its development is in progress. Meanwhile we have a screenshot of a development build running on Windows 10 to chew on.

If I would be the developer, I would focus on making the FRAPS more compatible with SMAA, option to change the font, color and specially the SIZE for that shitty yellow FPS count, etc.
Fraps doesn't record the FPS marker, so it doesn't matter. Simply turn it off and use in game FPS markers from the console command. Problem solved.
To need hardware acceleration, first FRAPS would need to incorporate options to store video in compressed formats.
In its current form, hardware acceleration would accomplish absolutely nothing.
The only thing ALL of the overlay programs lack at this point is support for Metro style MS apps and DX12
