Best Proram for system specs

Post by DnkMax »

Aida32 is my faviorite program for system specs.
Its freeware and helps me figureout where I need more fans..
It has drivers for all of the mobos sensors...
It also helps me figure out what im running...
I think everyone should have this program....

I use a combo of MBM and CoolMon. CoolMon is a program that runs in the background and has a nice display on my desktop that lists my mem usage, processor temp, case temp, harddrive free space, network stats, and uptime. All this is HIGHLY configurable and they are working on a newer version which looks cool.

I like Samurize better than coolmon.

MUCH more customizable. but it takes a little more work to get it to look good.

my standard move is to do a graph of ram usage and processor usage on the desktop. red and blue lines with a transparent gray background. it works pretty cool :)

I too will say Samurize... but i use the old version and am not bothing with the new one cause the one i have now (0.63c) cause it works and does what i want. I will agree that it is a pain to get set up, but its totaly coustomizeable. i like it. I use it to display temps (pulled from MBM5) free ram, uptime, HD space, Netowrk bandwith, and status of my other 2 computers.

you only need MBM if you want it to display temps or voltages or what not... samarize alone will display all the XP and 2k based performance monitors.
