is there a program to monitor my towers temp and everything running so i can check and see how its preforming? and seeing if everything is good and what not

speccy is good for basic stuff

or HWmonitor

i remember my buddy having this program that gave like live input on the systems temp and speed and stuff and colored it if it was green was good red bad etc but i don't know how to get into contact with him anymore

speccy
hwmonitor
