HWiNFO and GPU Tweak II, Other Software?

[Canister]

I have an Asus ROG STRIX GTX1060 6GB video card with GPU Tweak II running. I have an Asus motherboard.

1) I understand from searching the forum that HWiNFO can have conflicts with AI Suite 3. Is it OK to run HWiNFO with GPU Tweak II?

2) How necessary is it to leave GPU Tweak II running? 

3) Any recommendations for alternative software to control the video card or other parts of the system? What software combinations do other people use?

Thanks!

I'm not aware of any issues/conflicts running HWiNFO and GPU Tweak together.
MSI Afterburner is a good alternative as well and it works nice with HWiNFO (also has a plugin to read sensors from HWiNFO).

Martin, thanks! I am having fun trying HWiNFO with Afterburner. I hadn't used Afterburner in many years.

And thanks for your obvious dedication. Of course HWiNFO works with normal stuff like drives, CPU, GPU, RAM, motherboard, network, etc. But it also sees my Corsair AX860i PSU, my CyberPower UPS, and my NZXT Kraken water cooler.
