    High CPU temps, should I worry/take action?

    hello hello! When rendering heavy files from After effects, some CPU values report in the red. I was wondering, if I should take any action, if these numbers are about to damage or so? The reds in the first 4 values happened during the render multiple times, for short moments. The 71% min...

    HWiNFO taking nearly 80% CPU, pushing overall CPU to 100%

    Since the latest version upgrade, HW CPU usage will spike, and the system becomes unusable. I need to force close HW as the system gets to 100% CPU use. After a couple of uninstall/reinstalls, I decided to permanently remove it from my system. If this is a unique issue for my system, I'll...

    CPU usage - HWiNFO64 vs Task Manager

    When I export a video in premier pro 2022 the task manager shows some CPU cores hitting 100% usage and staying there for a while, but HWiNFO shows the values never hit 100% (maximum column)? Which one is wrong here? It is fine when I am running cinebench R23. What am I misunderstanding?

    HWiNFO Not Displaying Core Effective CPU Clock/Average Effective Clock on Startup

    So I launch HWiNFO64 v7.02-4430 by myself manually every time I boot up my computer. However, I've been noticing lately that it does not read the two previously mentioned sensor values on startup, and I have to actively restart the app. This also occurred on older versions of HWiNFO.
