Well , today I needed to install something different from AMD overlay which in my case was CapFrameX to see some extended graphs of my pc performance and guess what. No difference in CapFrameX with AMFF on/off... In AMD overlay it shows double the frames while in CapFrame it shows something like ''real % FPS'' ? Is that normal and why CapFrame would show me something different than it actually is ? Or the AMD is showing me something not right ? I know for sure that AMD overlay doesn't show me the real CPU power ,okay... but the frames !?!? For example in Squad I have 90-110-120 fps without AMFF , when I turn it on I have usually 220-230 accodring to AMD Overlay.But when I do this with CapFrameX overlay it show me the 90-110-120fps. Do I miss something ? Definitely the gameplay feels smoother but ,ughh ? Which one should I believe more - AMD Overlay or CapFrameX ?

It is normal behavior, only the amd overlay knows about the afmf's frames because they are not in the game. And yes, those frames exist.

How is a game engine able to see frames that it never rendered or queued?
It‘s a driver feature.
