Editor's review
Computers like all other electronic and mechanical devices are subject to faults and wear and tear as the years pass by. Components of your PC including Hard Disks and CPU etc over a period of time can deteriorate and suddenly one bright day they might just stop working. In light of such uncertainties related to your computer hardware, it is always prudent to install a hardware monitoring application in your system like the Argus Monitor 2.0.08. The application utilizes SMART attributes to determine the health of your system and can to a large probability predict issues that may crop up in near future.
When you launch the Argus Monitor 2.0.08 you get to see a sleek blue hued interface that has the primary display tabs placed in the top menu. For instance its Hard Drive related tabs includes one specific for temperature monitoring while the other looks at SMART attributes. Some of the variables it focuses upon include Spin up rate, Seek error rate along with load cycle count and Write error count. Apart from just gauging the key parameters, the application also uses an advanced algorithm to predict possible issues that may crop up with your hard drive and even lets you know when it fails. It has a separate tracking tab for GPU fan control which gives you a graphical detail on the fan speed in conjunction with prevailing temperature. Moreover it gives you repeated warning if any attribute is exceeding the manufacturer’s threshold along with relevant details. Its CPU sensors are quite refined too and can accurately track most current Intel and AMD processors. The display format is quite elegant and it’s easy to make out the readings.
The Argus Monitor 2.0.08 is undoubtedly a rather effectual tool, that can accurate monitor key hardware components and its sophisticated feature set and optimum performance earns it a score of 4 rating stars.
