   You're welcome.   
     If found in the Nvidia app, it's possible, in the past, that your   
   previous encounter was in the earlier app(Geforce Experience settings)   
   now replaced by the current Nvidia app.   
     - i.e. different apps, different feature location setting.   
      
   Also possible that the newer app when installed(or replacing older by an   
   update to old) enables(by default) the displaying of those 'performance'   
   stats.
