Game crashes all the time and you already did all of the above = all aboard the diagnostics train as it may be a number of things, from bad graphics card driver all the way overheating problems or malfunctioning components. Do the easy steps first (clean reinstall of the graphics driver + checking temps, under heavy load, and googling what's the maximum safe temperature for your processor + graphics card, it...

Open Hardware Monitor is pretty simple and solid. Just look through all the statistics for anything that's a temperature and make sure none of them are higher than, say, 50c when idle, or ~80c when you're doing something. Laptops have a slightly wider range of acceptable temperatures so there wouldn't be any immediate cause for alarm if it was slightly hotter than that, as long as you were doing something...

If you want free, easy benchmarking for DCS VR with super-useful information, you can use OCAT which will give you a frametime in average, 95th and 99th percentiles in a simple spreadsheet. Thanks for the super interesting benchmark! (=. Source: over 1 year ago
If you want to record VR frametimes, OCAT. If you just want framerates (min/max/avg) and percentiles (99th/90th/etc), Nvidia FrameView. Source: over 2 years ago
Benchmarking games with no dedicated benchmark is a little weird, but you can get the statistics via CapFrameX or MSI Afterburner or OCAT or FCAT. Source: over 2 years ago
Open Capture Analysis Tool. It is free and one of the metrics it tracks is missed frames. Nvidia and AMD use this tool for their internal testing. Easy to set up and just outputs an .csv file. Source: about 3 years ago
