How to view CPU performance
Table of contents:
The computer is an amalgamation of components inside that are harmonized and work thanks to the software that they themselves make work. CPU, RAM, storage, GPU... a computer, and in general any device, is a complex ecosystem that, however, does not keep secrets if we want to know details about its operationAnd that is something we are going to cover in this article.
It is about, as the article says, knowing the performance of some of the components of our PC such as the CPU, RAM, GPU, storage or even the Internet connection.We are also going to see it using only the tools offered by Windows so as not to depend on third-party applications.
Task Manager is the key
"The whole process has as its key point the Task Manager, a tool that almost everyone knows because it offers information about running applications , although it also allows you to know the degree of use of various elements of your computer."
Accessing the Task Manager>Control + Alt + Delete or Control + Shift + Escape. "
"Once inside the Task Manager the window that shows us the open applications is displayed by default, but to access the components We have to look for and click on the More details tab that is in the lower left area of the screen."
Once inside, we must click on the Performance tab that you have at the top and in it we will have access in a very graphic way to how components such as the CPU, RAM memory, hard drives, GPU and even the connection are being used (more or fewer components may appear depending on the hardware of your computer)."
This window occupies a good place on the screen if you want to monitor the equipment while executing different actions, so we can always activate the compact viewer .
This is a compact viewer that offers the same data but in a reduced form.To activate it just double click on the left column and the part of the window that shows the details of each section will be hidden and the data will be followed viewing in real time.
If we also want to see only the data of one of the elements that appear on the screen, we only have to choose the record we want view and double click on the graph to adjust the window so that we will only have a graphical interface without data in the form of numbers.
