daspinall Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 (edited) https://openhardwaremonitor.org/ when running goto view tab click on show gadget then on the gadget window right click always on top.... In the main panel scroll down to your CPU main or core temp right click on it and click show in gadget, and do the same for the gpu and power consumption.......

cianpars Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 I use Coretemp to monitor my CPU cores and Afterburner for my GPU temp. Both show the temps on the taskbar.

davidc2 Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 I use a variety of programs Core Temp Afterburner CPU-Z HWMonitor I like Afterburner because you can configure it to show certain information WHILE in game, core and GPU temps along with FPS Windows 10 Pro, 32 gigs DDR4 RAM, Nvidia GForce RTX 3070, Intel I7 10700 running at 3.8, with Noctua NH-L9x65, Premium Low-Profile CPU Cooler-HP Reverb G2 for Virtual Reality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daspinall Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 (edited) For monitoring temps Open Hardware monitor is the best heat monitoring tool imo, and the tool pc builders use..... Afterburner if you want to overclock or boost game performance... https://www.saashub.com/compare-msi-afterburner-vs-open-hardware-monitor?ref=compare Edited January 29, 2022 by daspinall ASRock X570 TAICHI Mother Board AMD Ryzen 9 3900X 3.79 GHz *Overclocked* Corsair 240mm H100i ELITE CAPELLIX RGB Intel/AMD CPU Liquid Cooler Corsair DOMINATOR PLATINUM RGB 64GB 3600MHz *Overclocked* MSI NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Ti 24GB SUPRIM X Ampere. 1000W PSU.

johnost Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Hi John, I use a free program called SPECCY, it will tell you everything going on in your PC like component specs, temperatures, frequencies, etc. However, it does not address power consumption. https://www.ccleaner.com/speccy?source=CgcOAwoDBw0&utm_source=cj-12992121&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=Softonic+International%2C+S.A.&utm_content=7074958&utm_term=3984473&cjevent=8ef90fab818311ec833901020a82b824&x-origin=9&x-cjevent=8ef90fab818311ec833901020a82b824&tracking=cj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
