HWMonitor for Windows

What is HWMonitor?

HWMonitor brings hardware sensor readings into one Windows application. It reads temperatures, voltages, power, currents, fan speeds, utilization and clock speeds from supported components. CPU and GPU monitoring sits alongside support for selected motherboard monitoring chips, memory modules with thermal sensors, SSDs and hard disks through S.M.A.R.T., and batteries. The sensor tree makes it useful for checking what a component reports while you observe your PC's workload.

The standard edition includes CSV data logging, triggered with F5, and real-time graphs for selected sensors. CPUID's usage guide describes adding a sensor to a graph from its right-click menu; a graph can contain up to eight curves. These functions let you follow readings over time rather than rely on one instant.

This entry links to CPUID's English EXE setup for Windows x86/x64. The publisher says setup selects the 32-bit or 64-bit binaries to match Windows; a separate ZIP package is available for portable use. Windows ARM64 has a separate publisher download page. Remote monitoring, sensors as tray icons and more advanced logging belong to HWMonitor PRO, not this free standard edition. The gallery image illustrates an older Windows interface; its precise application version is not identified by the source.
