Do you guys know any good programs to monitor hardware (CPU, GPU) and then have it show up in a game overlay? I have MSI Afterburner but is there anything else?
Evga precision.
ATI Tray tools and RivaTuner do it.
Thanks guys [img]http://www.facepunch.com/fp/rating/heart.png[/img] one more question, can those programs monitor the amount of power your system is using? If those can't do you guys know what programs do that?
HW Monitor sometimes shows you the wattage you're using. Depends on your Mobo. [url]http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/hwmonitor.html[/url]

The best that can happen is to check the total amount of wattage the CPU is using, depending on your chipset. You cannot get the total wattage of your system without using an external power monitor.
