This command should work:
Bring down the console (Ctrl+Alt+~) and type out com_showfps1 or if that doesnt work then just type out com_showfps

But you can try out third party software like FRAPS that do more than just show thr framerate. Check this thread for more info and the download link.:D

thanks but wrong reply

Thanks for ur reply

I used showfps in google

the correct answers is
:
press atl+ctrl + ~ [for console ]

set com_showFPS "1"
which will display your current FPS in corner of screen.
