Hello everyone,

I'm soon going to release the Multi Info meter gadget which will be able to give you information of your system. The main updates compared to my multi meter gadgets are based on temperature sensor reading and fan speeds etc...

At present, the gadget is taking a little more ressources than i expected but its still underneath 1%

Unfortunately the use of a third party software will be needed to be able to read the temps and the fan speeds, I wish i could stay that the job was done with Speedfan or Mbm5 but it will be Everest. (this is only temporary as i'm already developping a speedfan version)

Finally its already very stable at present but didn't do the setting part yet and docking/undocking part, ths is why i will only hand it out in around 2 weeks....

The reason of this post is not only to inform the fans of my gadgets but surely to get some feedback from you guys.

- What type of information do you need / don't need?

- Any suggestions or critics are allowed ;)

- Do you prefer smaller like normal multi meter gadgets?

- etc...

Please feel free to give me some comments...

Other pictures are available on my board (smaller version etc...): Link

I hope the gadget does everything else without having to install everest. Everest no longer has a freeware option. Speedfan doesn't have a version fully compatible with Vista. Mbm5, I haven't tried.

Basically, combine everything you already have (memory, cpu, hdd space) and add on fan speeds and temps. That should be enough for a first version. Also, make sure to be able to customize how often the app updates. Finally, if one chooses to display 3/5 options, the gadget should use 3/5 of the memory it would when everything was checked. In other words, the gadget should not monitor when told not to display an option.

Keep up the good work SFkilla!

Hey slimy,

Unfortunetaly everest is used for fan speeds and temps.... other infos are available without everest ultimate installed.

Like you say about the other progies... Nothing is perfect with only one solution. I tried already with all the known softs like speedfan (bug & stopped wmi & not enough ressources), mbm5 (not updated anymore and difficult to relate it to the sidebar), hmonitor is ok, i could manage to get the temps, fans etc...without problems but again, only with the pro version of hmonitor which isn't free, cpucool guys gave me some help but only c++ limited, etc....for the others.

So at present, i will use Everest because its the best info source than i've been playing with (really amazing), but i won't push anyone to buy everest, i will just try to do without everest as soon as possible. ;)

Also thanks for the suggestions for the Multi Info gadget

Regards

    • I don't find them "bitchy" or "whiny". I think the term you should use it, uhm, "passionate."
    • Ahh, I didn't know that. It makes sense. I was thinking I would be fine with 50 hours, but 100 is close enough that I wouldn't feel like I am paying for more than I am using. I might check it out sometime.
    • Google's next-gen Tensor AI chips might be produced by Samsung, report says by Hamid Ganji Image via Google Google’s Tensor Processing Unit (TPU) is produced in collaboration with companies such as Broadcom and TSMC, but a recent report suggests that the search giant is in talks with Samsung to hand over part of the production to the Korean tech company. According to a report by The Information, citing people familiar with the matter, Google has begun talks with Samsung about using its chip manufacturing capacity for the next generation of Tensor AI chips. Google’s upcoming TPUs are reportedly codenamed “Icefish” and will be produced using Samsung's 2-nanometer process technology. Meanwhile, Samsung is expected to produce only a portion of the next-generation Tensor chips, with most of the production remaining at TSMC. The Information says the new Tensor chips are currently in the design stage and are scheduled to enter mass production in 2028. TSMC is generally considered one of the most reliable chip manufacturing partners and is trusted by tech giants such as Apple and Google. However, the growing demand for TSMC’s AI chips, combined with the company’s focus on meeting demand from AI data centers, has reportedly prompted Google to seek additional manufacturing partners for its next-generation TPUs. Besides Samsung and TSMC, Intel could also be assigned part of the production. The Information reported this week is that Google has begun talks with Intel to produce up to three million TPUs in 2028. However, this is not the first time Google has partnered with Samsung on chip production, as Samsung has previously manufactured Tensor chips for Pixel smartphones. Google’s Tensor Processing Unit is used in cloud data centers and competes with NVIDIA’s chips, which currently dominate the market. By relying on in-house chips, Google can not only reduce its dependence on third-party providers but also create new revenue opportunities. The company has already supplied its TPUs to the AI firm Anthropic.
    • Reminder that the Premium and Ultimate plans already come with a 100 hour per month limit, which you then have to pay more to increase in 15 hour blocks.
    • It does invite Linux because MS should have been improving their products all along these years instead chose to ignore the users now this year they’re making all of these improvements to their products where as Linux doesn’t have this kind of problems in fact it has gotten so good I can even play Windows games in Steam that I no longer ever needed Windows to carry on with my life, unlike you still use Windows and chose to try beat down down those who don't use Windows because they love their LG TV. (Surprisingly I actually own a 55” LED LG TV and it has been going strong for almost 14 years, longer than any Sony TV”)
