Benchmarking - FRAPS/Riva not working in Vulkan/Mantle API

I'm trying to run a series of benchmarks using FRAPS and Afterburner/Rivatuner. However, I can't get either software to work within these API's. Any solutions or better software?

FRAPS is super old and hasn't been updated in years, so clearly won't support Vulkan or newer APIs. There's really no reason to use it anymore.

RivaTuner should support Vulkan. I've gotten it to show the OSD, so I assume it should support benchmarking too (though I didn't try). Make sure you are on the latest version.

NVIDIA Gefore Experience has a FPS meter. Works in everything I believe.

Silly me, was running an old version of Rivatuner. Still trying to figure out how to do actual benchmarks with this though. On FRAPS I push one button and it records FPS and frame times, then Bench Viewer compiles that data into your final FPS numbers.

I'll probably figure this out eventually, but anyone want to save me a few steps and explain how to do what I just described? I have it plugged into MSI Afterburner, and I can see raw data, but I'm not sure how to compile that data or an easy way to tell it exactly when to record and not record.

Look into Intel PresentMon or Intel GPA. Both solutions are free. The former gives more control while the latter has an easier-to-use GUI.
