Gaming PC Monitoring Tools ??

Post by IndyWS6 »

I posted in another thread that I recently bought a new "gaming" PC. Curious what tools you might be using to check/adjust settings (CPU clocking, GPU settings, etc.) and to test and monitor performance. Ideally, freeware applications. I'm not really doing anything right now that demands any changes to the OOTB settings, but it would be good to know what's available and/or recommended.

CPU-Z for checking CPU and RAM speed and temps. Plus, it's free.

Cool - I'll check it out. I have the NVIDIA Experience app installed and the Intel clocking tool. Seems like some of the third-party stuff can be better than OEM, so I figured it was worth asking...
