[NAME] Dan To add to the great guidance you got from other folks on this thread, one last step you might want to perform after enabling the metrics you want to see in HWiNFO (which is pretty painful, since you have to do them one by one) is to make them always visible in the system tray, otherwise Windows will hide them.  To do that, right click the little ^ sign in the system tray and select "taskbar settings". In the settings window that open, scroll down and click "select which icons appear on the taskbar" and then turn on the ones from HWiNFO (you have to do it one by one). [IMAGE]
Somewhere among the several hundred posts in the thread regarding cooling issues, someone mentioned putting selected items from HWiNFO64 in the "system tray".  First, I'm not sure what that is for Windows 10.  Is that what is referred to as the "notification area" that extends from the right side of the screen when you click on the box at the lower right corner of the screen? Second, how do you get HWiNFO64 to do this?  I found a gear labelled "configure sensors" in the lower right corner of "sensors", but when I select the system tray tab and select several to put in the tray, nothing happens.  Is there some way to get a simple dashboard that shows selected sensor readings (such as CPU speed, Core and VRM temps, etc.)? Thanks!
