Fantastic, I've tried other products from gigabyte and MSI but you can literally feel the processing power those suck up, my mouse even lags sometimes when I'm in MSI even it's so poorly optimized and I've got an i9 with a 3000 series graphics card.

Pros

They just do exactly what you want them to do. There is no fluff or added features to make things look nice that could take up extra processing power (which you definitely don't want to do if you are monitoring your data in the first place, especially temps). This program is so lightweight and you get all of the data right there, first page when you open the program, no need for tutorials, no need to turn it off when your computer is running hot, it's the perfect program for monitoring your computer.

Cons

There's nothing to not like, maybe for some people a nicer looking application would be a priority for whatever reason, but if you are monitoring temps, at least for me, you want all the data, 0 fluff, and lowest processing power to obtain it and display it, and that's exactly what HVMonitor does. It also has a few other helpful tools I've used but it's mostly just the front page data.

E uno strumento fondamentale per me che sono appassionato di informatica, permette di gestire in maniera semplice e facilitata tutti i parametri fondamentali del pc watt, temperature ecc .

Pros

E' uno strumento fondamentale per monitorare il proprio hardware in tempo reale , fondamentale per chi realizza pc e oc. Grafica intuitiva e semplice me lo fa preferire ad altri competitor.

Cons

Per me che utilizzo la versione free nessuno.

Pros

Software completo e gratuito, varie versioni specifiche per i diversi tipi di CPU, interfaccia utente intuitiva e semplice ma non spartana, solo senza fronzoli inutili. Applicazione per PC veloce e facile da scaricare dal loro sito ufficiale.

Cons

In realtà non credo che abbia difetti, considerando anche che è gratuito.

overall experience, I would really recommend this software to anyone, it is much safer than staying without monitoring.

Pros

I'm using this software for a long time, I start using it once I bought my gaming PC, it is a really great software to control your computer parts, it gives you many details about your device like the parts information, temperature, CPU usage, clock speed,voltage, memory speed, and many informations, more than that you can export a monitoring txt file.

Cons

the software is perfect, I'm always using it, nothing is bad

It has been a great program that has helped me since college as it allowed me to take better care of my computer and now in my professional life it allows me to know what is wrong with a computer and fix it.

Pros

I love that with the help of this program, it is possible to know and document the problems that the computers of the inventory and the office have and to be able to solve them in the best possible way.

Cons

The graphical interface is not very friendly, it could be improved so that an inexperienced user understands each value it shows.

Pros

I've been an user of HWMonitor since December 2020 and I am very happy with the results it has given me. Having built my first PC I had to be sure that everything worked correctly and HWMonitor was the one that helped me. It's not a demanding software and fulfills its function. I'm really satisfied with the accuracy of the information that HWMonitor gives me.

Cons

Being a software with a single function that performs correctly, I do not see any negative points.
