If you want to find out detailed information about your computer hardware, one of the best choices is HWiNFO64. Whether you are planning on upgrading your system or simply want to keep an eye on the hardware components, this professional diagnostics tool can come in handy.
When running it, you can choose what the application should scan. Analyzing the system configuration does not take long and the application immediately provides you with details about each detected piece of hardware, from the computer brand name, the central processor type, the motherboard and the memory to details about connected drives, audio devices, network adapters and ports.
Everytime HWiNFO64 is opened the 'System Summary' window allows you to view the most important information about your machine. You can use it to monitor the activity of each CPU core and view details about the operating system, the system memory and the connected removable drives.
The application comes with a sensor reading tool, designed to report data regarding the temperature of your hardware components, the used and the available memory, the CPU voltage, frequency and usage, as well as some S.M.A.R.T parameters.
For every read value, you can choose the scan interval, set thresholds, enable custom alerts and even set the program to report the value using a sidebar gadget, in order to monitor it easier. Furthermore, the program can record the values to a log file and save it your computer, for later reference.
HWiNFO64 can generate custom reports in various formats, such as CSV, XML, HTML, MHTML and text files.
As its name suggests, HWiNFO64 is a native 64-bit application, thus it does not work on 32-bit systems (if you are running a 32-bit system, you should use HWiNFO32). - link
