Hardware Monitor

Hey Guys,

I was wondering if there was a piece of software that would monitor all my hardware while im playing a game. The reason for this is im getting strange rare "lag spikes" in COD4 which i doubt are internet related.

I would just like to see if any of the hardware is going crazy (Fluctuating) when these spikes occur.

Thanks in advance

Everest Ultimate and a G15 logitech keyboard (if you have) the best way to monitor while playing

Heh, i have a g15 keyboard but its at OCUK at the moment... The screen blew up

Everest Ultimate is a bit hard to monitor any crazy fluctuations (Unless theres some kind of logging thing)

Cheers for the reply though

Rivatuner will do this. Won't log too much (that I know of) but if you notice a spike, minimise to the desktop in the next few min and you'll be able to trace what it is (if it's hardware related).

How do you get Rivatuner to do this?

Can't remember (only used it once to detect an issue I was having). It's in there somewhere. It's just like the Task Manager live graph, but includes GPU activity, CPU usage and other stuff too.
