Maxy85 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Hey guys, I hope this is the correct subforum. So I bought an new PC a few days ago, and wanted to check temperatures and fan speeds. Specs: i7 9700k, 2080 TI, 32 GB DDR4 RAM 3200 Mhz Thats why I downloaded AIDA64 and a small Rainmeter Skin, to display it on my second screen. Then while playing I had some stuttering / lags every 30 - 60 seconds. When I closed AIDA64, the lags stopped. I asked in reddit and some guy told me, that AIDA64 always stresses the CPU, and that the programm is not for monitoring. And yea, I saw that, some cores always go to 80-90%d I couldnt really believe it, so I decided I ask here :). Is there a way to make AIDA64 just for monitoring, without stressing the CPU? I didnt buy it yet, but I will if this is possible Thanks, Maxy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will lose a few sensor readings that way, but it should help to get rid of the stuttering. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
