Keeping up-to-date with what your machine is doing without having to open up a system utility and stop what you are working on, for some, is a useful way to stay in the know about the performance of your machine. It can also prove invaluable when a problem arises as you can see a spike in CPU usage in real time, for instance, and be able to address the cause immediately. The following 2 tools do just that and more.
Sidebar Diagnostics provides a lightweight tool for displaying real-time information about your PCs hardware.
This isn't a complicated diagnostic tool at any stretch, but it does provide useful information relating to your machine. You can only dock the sidebar on the right or left side of your desktop or onto another monitor if you have a multi-monitor configuration.
Sidebar Diagnostics allows you to customize easily what information is displayed as well as what order they appear - this is nice if you are wanting to pay attention to certain areas while you're working. You set up alerts for temperature which can be adjusted for your CPU and GPU or bandwidth if you choose.
You can control Sidebar Diagnostics right from the systray, or set up hotkeys to close, reload, show, hide or toggle the program.
