HWMonitor : A Tool that will Monitor your Hardware.


HWMonitor is a hardware monitoring program that reads PC systems main health sensors : voltages, temperatures, fans speed.


The program handles the most common sensor chips, like ITE® IT87 series, most Winbond® ICs, and others. In addition, it can read modern CPU s on-die core thermal sensors, as well has hard drives temperature via S.M.A.R.T, and video card GPU temperature.
Special hardware monitors such as abit® uGuru and Gigabyte® ODIN™ power supplies serie are supported too.

HWMonitor does not need to be installed. Just unzip the files in a directory and run the .exe. In order to remove the program, just delete the files.The program does not copy any file in any directory, neither writes in the registry.

PC WIZARD: Know Your Copmputer Information.

PC WIZARD 2008 is a powerful utility designed especially for detection of hardware, but also some more analysis. It's able to identify a large scale of system components and supports the latest technologies and standards. This tool is periodically updated (usually once per month) in order to provide most accurate results.

PC WIZARD 2008 is also an utility designed to analyze and benchmark your computer system. It can analyze and benchmark many kinds of hardware, such as CPU performance, Cache performance, RAM performance, Hard Disk performance, CD/DVD-ROM performance, Removable/FLASH Media performance, Video performance, MP3 compression performance.

PerfMonitor: Monitor Your Processor Performance

PerfMonitor is a processor performance monitoring tool. It allows to track the frequency of 4 events choosen in a set of model-specific list.

PerfMonitor can be used to identify the performance bottlenecks of a system, or to monitor a program for cache-miss rate or mis-predicted branches. But PerfMonitor can also be used as a hardware-level CPU comparison tool, comparing the key parameters of different CPUs runnning the same benchmark.


Install PerfMonitor

Unzip all files in the same directory and run perfmonitor.exe. You can run as many instances of PerfMonitor as there are physical CPUs in your system (see below for the particular case of CPUs that use HyperThreading technology). The first instance will be attached to CPU #0, the next one to CPU#1, and so on. The application settings will be saved in a file named PerfMonX.ini (where X refers to the CPU number) stored in your temporary account path (typically : C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\Local Settings\Temp).


Select monitored events

PerfMonitor allows to track up to 4 events, depending on the CPU model. Each event is attached to a graph. In order to change the monitored event, put the mouse cursor on a graph then click on the left button to make the events menu selection appear (note that the currently monitored event is checked in the menu).

Because of hardware limitations (namely the number of available counters), it is possible that all the desired events can't be monitored in the same time than other events. If a requested event is not available for monitoring, the graph will appear in grey color. Note that the events are created from the top to the bottom, consequently the events on the top graphes have more chance to be allocated. Note also that some events need two counters, especailly the ones that tracks a cache level success rate.
If the change of an event frees a counter that allows a non-available event to be monitored, it will be started automatically.

Real Temp:Monitor Your Processor Temperature

Real Temp is a temperature monitoring program designed for all Intel single Core, Dual Core, Quad Core and Core i7 processors. Each core on these processors has a digital thermal sensor (DTS) that reports temperature data relative to TJMax which is the safe maximum operating core temperature for the CPU. As your CPU heats up, your Distance to TJMax will decrease. If it reaches zero, your processor will start to thermal throttle or slow down so maximizing your distance away from TJMax will help your computer run at full speed and more reliably too.





Main Features

* Reads temperature information from all Intel Core based processors.
* Ability to individually calibrate Real Temp for each core of your CPU.
* Program is based on temperature data gathered using a Fluke 62 IR Thermometer.
* Test Sensors feature will check your DTS sensors for any sign of problems.
* Keeps track of Minimum and Maximum temperatures with full logging features.
* Reporting and logging of the Intel PROCHOT# thermal throttle activity bit.
* Quick, very accurate and repeatable benchmark.
* Displays MHz, TJMax, CPUID, APIC ID and Calibration settings.
* High temperature alarm and shutdown feature based on CPU or Nvidia GPU temperature.
* No installation or registry modifications required.
* Support for Windows 2000 / XP / Vista / Windows 7 (32/64 bit)

N.B.:Pentium 4 processors are not supported.
