Argus Monitor is a software for monitoring temperatures and status of serveal system components, e.g. CPU temperature, GPU temperature and HDD Temperature. All temperatures are displayed graphically. Additionally, the status of the hard disk drive will be monitored by constantly checking the so called critical SMART attributes. If one attribute decreases, the user is displayed an information (optionally), informing him of decreased HDD Health. If one of the SMART attributes reaches its specified threshold, the user gets a warning that a hardware failure is imminent.
Argus Monitor offers the following features:
* Monitors your hard disk drive temperature and the health status of your hard disk drive by constantly checking the critical S.M.A.R.T. attributes.
* Warns you with a probability of up to 70 percent before a hard drive fails -- in time for you to save all the precious data added to your system after the last backup.
* Graphical display of the temperatures of your hard disk drives.
* Monitoring and graphical display of GPU temperature.
* Graphical display of the CPU temperature (independently for each CPU core).
* Graphical display of core Frequency (enables you to check if power management is working).
* HDD/SSD Benchmark -- measuring access times and transfer rates.
* Display and control of system fan speeds (if supported by the hardware).
* Display and control fan speeds for ATI/AMD HD5xxx graphics cards.
