Hey all, Just wondering what you use for hardware monitoring if you have an app that can show various speeds and temperatures etc?

Quick edit: what about stress testing as well?

btop for sure. Shows current processes and their resources usage, us can terminate and kill them from the program kinda like windoes task manager, shows CPU usage/temp, and ram, storage, and network use. Only big thing it doesnt have that I use is GPU monitoring, I use nvtop for that.

For stress testing, mprime is def best for CPU stress test. You may know it as prime95 on windows.
