Bmarius Posted February 19, 2002 Share Posted February 19, 2002 CoolMon is slowing down applications especially 3D Mark 2001 and games.I have runned a 3D Mark test with CoolMon on and some tests are slowed down and there have been some frezzes. Especialy in the Nature I had drops from 23fps to 13fps constantly! So my advice if your are running games or 3D Mark 2001 close CoolMon! Haven't you guys noticed that! Try for your selfes!

kagaku Posted February 19, 2002 Share Posted February 19, 2002 What do you have the update time set to? I find that anything below 500ms makes my system slow down.. Since CoolMon starts using alot of CPU time just to get the stats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bmarius Posted February 19, 2002 Author Share Posted February 19, 2002 My update time is 500ms not below! I mean it is not slowing down Windows XP just games and 3D Mark! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XPfreakus Posted February 19, 2002 Share Posted February 19, 2002 :( Yep, is slowing down XP too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mariusu Posted February 19, 2002 Share Posted February 19, 2002 just set the update time higher...of course it's slowing down your machine since it's using ressources to display itself and to read the values it displays. in windows you won't notice it, but of course you will notice it in games, where you need all the power your pc gives:D seems like we have the same name: bmarius=b + marius mariusu=marius + u me too from romania.... :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJP Posted February 19, 2002 Share Posted February 19, 2002 Yep, the program is bad. Hardware sensors monitor is much better. But that is shareware :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mariusu Posted February 19, 2002 Share Posted February 19, 2002 or only just use motherboard monitor...it's only for the temperature and the fans, but it'S ok. though coolmoon needs mbm installed to run.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
