i have never used any in game. or really outside of it.
I have hwinfo tracking some temps in task bar but they don't show in game.
Never really bothered with the one from AMD or Afterburner.

Could just as easily set up logging if you really cared, that way its tracked but not on screen.

Yeah but that would take extra time to go through whatever data it produces

and hwinfo produces too much info.

If you don't need it, just turn them off.

I actually watched that just before I got my new CPU. Immediately checked it out when it arrived. Good infos

So realistically, since the faster drives get, the less you gain in return (I mean, in game load times), there is no real point getting the fastest drives for pretty much anything - unless you move super large files daily. As long as you don't have a hdd, you are fine.

I knew answer to his tests before he ran them.

read times are losing their meaning with storage, they should sell them on write speeds as those are noticeable.

I'm not sure what is involved in processing the shader cache that every big game does these days, but I'm willing to do just about anything to get that process to move faster.

I got bored of blue rgb after 2 months
This is a darker green to my eyes

looks like a fish tank again. I should get some plastic plants and put inside... I used to have some years ago... for my fish tanks.
