I experienced occasional unusual spikes while playing certain games. Using the task manager or performance tab with graphs helped identify some problems and resolve a few issues. But not all games behave consistently—some become unstable when I switch tabs, and others refuse to allow me to exit, forcing a full screen. Occasionally, games simply dislike having the task manager running. Tracking these spikes without clear visibility is frustrating. Do you know any software that can monitor and log these spikes for better analysis? This would be extremely useful for accurate benchmarks later. Edit: I found an application from Razer that offers this capability. However, it displays FPS counts instead of detailed CPU, GPU, RAM data. That’s essentially what I need. Attached images.

Well, HWinfo provides detailed information about my PC specs, which is really helpful. Unfortunately, it didn’t give exactly what I was looking for, but I’m glad it’s useful. That particular feature is especially interesting because I never realized those details before. On the flip side, a friend suggested using Xbox Game Bar to monitor real-time performance, and it seems my RAM and GPU are hitting their limits. I’ll need to address that soon. Thanks again, An0maly_76! Your advice is still very valuable, especially for other uses.

I'm not sure if bumps are effective here, but I discovered an app that performs the tasks I need. It only tracks FPS, which is exactly what I want. However, the display shows percentages for CPU, GPU and similar metrics. I'll update the main post to clarify this.
