Commands verified against the official Cfx.re client-console reference on August 4, 2026.<\/em><\/p>\n

FiveM FPS command<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. Launch FiveM and join the server you want to test.<\/li>\n
  2. Naci\u015bnij F8<\/strong> aby otworzy\u0107 konsol\u0119 klienta.<\/li>\n
  3. Enter:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
    cl_drawfps true<\/code><\/pre>\n
      \n
    1. Close the console and reproduce the same route, location or gameplay scene.<\/li>\n
    2. When testing is finished, open F8 and enter cl_drawfps false<\/code>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
      cl_drawfps<\/code> is a standard user command. It does not require developer mode.<\/p>\n
      Show FPS, ping, packet loss, CPU and GPU data<\/h2>\n
      U\u017cywa\u0107 cl_drawperf true<\/code> when FPS alone is not enough:<\/p>\n
      cl_drawperf true<\/code><\/pre>\n
      The official overlay includes FPS, ping, packet loss, CPU usage, GPU usage and GPU temperature. Disable it with cl_drawperf false<\/code>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
      Overlay value<\/th>\nWhat it helps you check<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n
      FPS<\/td>\nHow smoothly the local client draws frames.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
      Ping<\/td>\nThe round-trip network delay to the server.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
      Packet loss<\/td>\nWhether network packets fail to arrive in time.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
      CPU usage<\/td>\nWhether the client workload is CPU-heavy.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
      GPU usage and temperature<\/td>\nWhether graphics load or heat may be limiting the client.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
      How to measure a FiveM FPS problem<\/h2>\n
        \n
      1. Restart FiveM and join the same server at a similar player count.<\/li>\n
      2. Use the same location, weather, vehicle and camera view.<\/li>\n
      3. Record the normal FPS and the worst repeatable drop for at least two minutes.<\/li>\n
      4. Change one graphics setting or disable one suspected client mod.<\/li>\n
      5. Repeat the same route and compare the result.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
        A single peak value is not a useful benchmark. Record a stable range and note the exact scene that causes the drop.<\/p>\n
        Client FPS vs server performance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
        Objaw<\/th>\nLikely area to investigate first<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n
        Low FPS on every server<\/td>\nClient graphics settings, GPU\/CPU load, drivers, graphics mods or background software.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
        Low FPS only in one city block<\/td>\nThe local MLO, props, vehicles, clothing density or UI resources.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
        High FPS but delayed movement<\/td>\nPing, packet loss or server\/network problems rather than rendering.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
        Many players report the same drop<\/td>\nA shared location or resource should be reproduced by the server team.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
        When to use Resmon or the profiler<\/h2>\n
        FPS tells you that the client is rendering slowly; it does not name the responsible resource. Server developers can use Resmon or the profiler for deeper diagnosis. The current Cfx.re documentation lists resmon<\/code> as a developer command, so a normal production-channel client may return Access denied for command resmon<\/code>.<\/p>\n
        If Resmon is available in the chosen development setup, open it with resmon true<\/code> and close it with resmon false<\/code>. Use the FiveM Resmon guide<\/a> and the official profiler documentation before blaming a resource from one short sample.<\/p>\n
