Turn off Nvidia FPS overlay in CSGO (solved)

Hello,

I've manged to install NVIDIA 440.64 drivers and NVIDIA X server settings manager on my newly installed arch.

Tried to download & install from NVIDIA failed. automatically disable the nouveau left me in a terminal only state. (KDE won't load)

fixed that by ctrl + alt + F2 then:

$sudo pacman -S nvidia
$sudo pacman -S lib32-nvidia-libgl

and tested with: lspci -v

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GP104 [GeForce GTX 1070] (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
        Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. GP104 [GeForce GTX 1070]
        ...
        Expansion ROM at 000c0000 [virtual] [disabled] [size=128K]
        Capabilities: <access denied>
        Kernel driver in use: nvidia
        Kernel modules: nouveau, nvidia_drm, nvidia

after that my KDE loaded, I installed steam and everything is fine (performance are OK), except the annoying FPS monitor that I can't seem to turn off..
Tried all other ways to toggle on and off the fps monitor from within CSGO console, steam, and NVIDIA settings manager..
I think it's NVIDIA specific issue but couldn't find anything about it online that worked.

a picture of that is here: https://imgur.com/a/nu3CZly

Please help,
Thanks.

That's not part of the Nvidia driver. This is something in CSGO. Search online for CSGO console commands about network, ping, packetloss. You should find something.

It's the "net_graph" console variable. Set it to "0" (zero). You currently have it on "1" (one).

I could find screenshot online and this "net_graph" thing is I hope what you are seeing. I typed "csgo network console" into google.

OMG!, You're right!!!

I really don't understand why it wasn't on at my windows machine and toggled on in my arch... (new install I Definitely didn't activate that "net_graph")

Thanks!

maybe the root cause is that steam saved my last ubuntu settings somehow!!!!
