I need software to monitor temps and fans so I can decide how to set up my curve and then leave the software running to catch any future problems. I need current/max/min temps/RPM, utilization % and for it to be very lightweight. Graphs would be nice but not really needed.

Do you guys have any thoughts or info about these?

- HWMonitor - I've been using this so far but it often needs to be restarted a couple of times to detect CPU/Pump/Case fans + you can't minimize it to systray...

- LibreHardwareMonitor - Look good but needs PawnIO driver that is looking very sus to me (problems with anticheats?) - Also has fan control which would be nice for testing!

- HWinfo64 - I use this for general info but not for constant monitoring, I remember it used to be quite heavy. Maybe it's lighter now?

Just curious about the best monitoring softwares for monitoring my hardware. Building a PC this weekend, just got all of the parts in and would like to get those early and be prepared for when I boot up for the first time to make sure everything is running ok. Thanks!

I relatively recently got my first AMD GPU (Sapphire), and until now it's been fine, but am getting crashes on one game. Trying to figure out the culprit. Could be my CPU just as easily.

So I did a browser search for some hardware monitoring software, and came back with Hardware monitor and MSI afterburner. I only have the one monitor, an Intel CPU, and would like to be able to monitor temps and other stats of CPU and GPU while gaming. Could anyone make a recommendation between the two based on my requirements?

Thanks.

I've been using HWINFO64 for monitoring my hardware and it works perfectly. The thing is, I bought me this small 8'' monitor which I will dedicate only for monitoring temps, clock speeds etc. HWINFO would do the job perfectly fine, but I would love be able to customize it and make it look nice on the small monitor.

Can you recommend any softwares that can monitor your hardware and customize it to make it look ''cool''?

Heya! I hope this is the right place to ask.

Obviously there's a lot of hardware monitors, but I'm looking for one that I can have constantly open on my second screen, with transparent background (or some sort of customizing the look), automatically opens when i boot into windows, kind of like a widget or rainmeter.

I had some problems with rainmeter in the past, so i'm looking for an alternative.

Thanks!

I've been using NZXT CAM lately since it came recommended with my board but I'm looking for something better & more open source that accurately monitors everything & comes with fan & RGB lighting control & ideally a program that as little to no advertising as possible since CAM does seem to also be an advertising portal for some of their products & doesn't require an account just to use it. Can anyone recommend me such a program?

Hello is there a similar software to task manager performance that I can view later on? Like graphs and such of performances? My games run for awhile but get random fps tanks so just trying to diagnose it thank you.

Hello, I just built this PC and I'm looking for something to just give me a readout of CPU and GPU temps and usage that isn't too techy looking. I used to run Intel Extreme Tuning which would just sit there and show me info and looked pretty.

Things like HWinfo etc just show me too much and look a bit too much like a spreadsheet so there's not any 'at a glance' readout. MSI Afterburner doesn't do CPU temps, MSI Center is a piece of crap that hangs on the install screen forever and is also 500mb for some reason, so I'm wondering if there's anything out there that just does the job in a visually appealing manner, with extra points for being lightweight.

Any ideas?

I have found a lot when googling, but most of the articles are out of date. What do you guys prefer? I am most interested in CPU cores, temperatures, and GPU.

Just curious what the community here thinks. I use Libre hardware monitor (formerly Open hardware monitor) as it's very simple and I mainly watch for temps, fans speed, and GPU and CPU clocks. I have heard HW info 64 is better and more accurate though. Any truth to that or are either good?

I've been using CPU-Z and HWMonitor, but for some reason, I'm unable to see the core temp of my CPU on there, just the voltage.

I have a Ryzen 3700X on an X570 motherboard.

All temps including Mobo and GPU are available. For CPU, I see the voltage and utilization for the cores but no temps. Would appreciate any recommendations here. Thanks!

What software do you use for monitoring loads and temperatures of CPU and graphics card load and temperature?

I really like Open Hardware Monitor, it does tell me everything I need, but the graphs themselves aren't really that great - I'd really like the line widths to be a lot thicker.

Is there any other hardware monitoring software with a better interface?

In need of cool looking resource/hardware monitors for my Windows 10 pc. I will also accept Python code or GitHub repos.

Need a program for CPU/GPU/Memory temp and loads please

I have just installed my new 2021 Gaming PC. I have been saving for a while and finally have it up and running.

I7 10700k

GTX 2070 Super (upgrading to 3080)

32 GB Corsair RGB Ram

Lian Li Galahad 360

9 x Uni Lian Li Fans

Lian Li Dynamic XL Case.

What Programs do you guys/gals run to monitor your PC? Maybe Temp/Fan controls? RGB lighting?

I would like to look into nice Apps as well,Gaming/Chat etc etc.

What you guys got on your Desktop that i should look into?
