It seems you're asking about tools for monitoring system temperatures and performance metrics. You mentioned interest in CPU, GPU temps, and benchmarking software, and you noted MSI Afterburner is highly regarded for this purpose.

CPU HW Monitor priced at 95. I also prefer using 3DMark for bench testing. I might explore other models commonly used by different platforms to enable comparisons.

Unigine Heaven 4.0 works well for testing. I run AI tools but CPU-Z shows temperatures (probably). Without a hardware monitor it's unclear. GPU temps vary a lot. I stick with card manufacturers' guides. I own an EVGA card so I use Precision X. It lets me tweak overclock settings, power caps, voltage, fan speeds, and monitor temps.

I’ve checked the CPUID information using the Prime 95 monitor. It’s a good idea to run a memory test with Memtest86 on your 86dX86 or Furmark Kombustor system. This helps ensure your HDD or SSD isn’t storing errors. Just started this process recently, and it’s helping confirm everything is running smoothly.

I keep the Windows Task Manager, CPU-Z, and Afterburner running all the time.

I monitor with HWMonitor, Open Hardware Monitor, and Core Temp across all my systems. On Intel models, I rely on Real Temp.
