Pretty damn slick...Kindle Fire Hardware Monitor

For years I used the on-screen display built into MSI Afterburner to monitor my Hardware and FPS. I never really found the OSD too distracting and only a few times did it get in the way. A few weeks ago, I snagged an EVGA 1080 ti FTW3. Unfortunately due to the unique cooling system MSI Afterburner is unable to control the fans correctly and EVGA Precision X is needed. While Precision X is not my favorite, it works well enough for the little overclocking I do. The biggest downside is that the Precision X OSD is garbage. This lead me to explore other options. After trying a few other OSD, all less than ideal, I came across a thread on the AIDA64 forum about using an Android device to display sensor values via USB. It uses an Android app called Odospace. I have a Kindle Fire HD that gets very little use, so I figured I would give it a try. Although the setting up the display layout was quite cumbersome, I am really happy with the result.

Here is information on how to set this up if anyone is interested: https://forums.aida64.com/topic/277...vice-connected-via-usb-odospace-remote-panel/

The Fire is just $49 if you don't. It also makes a good music player since you can add a 128 GB SD card and the headphone audio is good. It also has Bluetooth for sending the audio to a receiver or speaker.

Been using my old G19 keyboard Lcd like that for years. Really got used to it.

Since I have a Logitech mouse (and thus have the Logitech Gaming Software installed) I've been using their Arx Control app for the same use. Not as detailed, but IMO your display looks like true information overload. Shows temps + CPU, GPU and RAM load. That's all I really want/need. Not to mention there's no configuration needed.
