How Do You Check Your FPS in League of Legends?

FPS, or frames per second, is one of the most important things for you if you're a competitive gamer. Players of games like League of Legends especially need to keep note of their FPS if they want to ensure their system is able to keep up with the rest of the game. After all, there's nothing worse than getting outplayed because of low FPS. Keep in mind that this is only about how you can see FPS and not how you can max FPS in LoL.

Seeing your FPS in League of Legends is fairly straightforward. While it is initially already toggled to be showing at the top right, some players might accidentally toggle it off. To fix this, all you have to do is press the FPS hotkey, which is usually "Ctrl + F."  To help you with FPS, we'll also be going through some of the most frequently asked questions related to this topic.

So, without further ado, here's everything you need to know about checking your FPS in League of Legends.

Changing FPS Hotkeys for LoL

If you prefer different hotkeys for toggling the FPS display in League of Legends, you can customize them to your liking. Flexibility is essential to ensure your comfort during gameplay.

Accessing Hotkey Settings

To adjust the hotkeys for the FPS display or any other settings, open the LoL client and follow these steps:

• Click on the small gear icon at the top right of the LoL client.
• Navigate to the "Hotkeys" tab on the left, located under the "In-game" section.
• Scroll down to the "Display" section and open it.
• Find "Toggle FPS Display."

Customizing Hotkeys

Alternatively, if you specifically want to change just the key bind for toggling FPS display, follow these steps:

• Click on the first cell to change the key bind (the default is "Control + F").
• Enter the key bind you prefer.
• If you wish to assign another keybind, click on the adjacent cell and repeat the process.
• A pop-up menu will appear for keybinding allocation. Enter your preferred keybind and click "Save."
• Click on "Done" to save your changes.

Viewing FPS with Xbox Game Bar

Another convenient method for checking your FPS is by using the Xbox Game Bar. Available on Windows 11 and 10, the Xbox Game Bar provides various gaming-oriented features, including an easy way to view the FPS counter.

• Press "Win + G" to open the Xbox Game Bar overlay.
• By default, you'll see the FPS counter below the CPU, GPU, VRAM, and RAM usage metrics in a separate window.
• If the FPS counter is not visible, click on the "Performance" button at the top of the screen.

While the Xbox Game Bar allows you to view the frame rates, the FPS counter will disappear when you try to get back into the game. This means you'll have to open the FPS counter multiple times if you want to tweak your graphic settings. Fortunately, you have the option to pin the FPS counter anywhere on the screen.

• Click and hold the left mouse button on the "Performance" icon (or an empty area at the top of the window) and drag the FPS counter around the screen.
• Click on the "Pin" button after you've placed the FPS counter in the desired position.
