Artemis has several ways of gathering monitoring data from CPUs, GPUs, RAM, etc. like usage, temperature, clock speed etc.
This means you can make your GPU turn a different color when its core temperature is above 70 degrees, for example.
There are several plugins capable of this, depending on how much information is needed and what additional programs might be running.
This plugin comes bundled with Artemis and works out of the box. Unfortunately, it only supports a limited amount of hardware and only provides a limited amount of information:
This is generally the best option, as it provides the most information and is the most efficient. It is also the easiest to set up.
Shared Memory Support option is enabled in HWiNFO64 (Options -> Shared Memory)The plugin will automatically detect the running HWiNFO64 instance and start reading data from it.
To use the data, you can use the provided Module. Please refer to the documentation for profiles for more information on how to use data from Modules.
Like the WMI version of OpenHardwareMonitor, this plugin depends on HWiNFO64 running in the background. As such, admin privileges are not required.
It uses shared memory to communicate with HWiNFO64, so it is faster and more efficient than the OpenHardwareMonitor (WMI) plugin.
This plugin uses the WMI interface of OpenHardwareMonitor to read data from the hardware. This means that it is slower and less efficient than the HWiNFO64 plugin, but it might support more hardware.
The plugin will automatically detect the running OpenHardwareMonitor/LibreHardwareMonitor instance and start reading data from it.
To use the data, you can use the provided Module. Please refer to the documentation for profiles for more information on how to use data from Modules.
This plugin uses the standalone version of OpenHardwareMonitor to read data from the hardware. This means you don't need to install OpenHardwareMonitor, but Artemis will need admin privileges.
The plugin will automatically start reading data from the hardware.
To use the data, you can use the provided Module. Please refer to the documentation for profiles for more information on how to use data from Modules.
This is the least recommended option, as it is the least efficient and requires a paid program. The data it provides is also more limited.
External Applications option is enabled in AIDA64 (Preferences -> Hardware Monitoring -> External Applications)The plugin will automatically detect the running AIDA64 instance and start reading data from it.
To use the data, you can use the provided Module. Please refer to the documentation for profiles for more information on how to use data from Modules.
