- For
- Windows PC users monitoring hardware and games
- Worth noticing
- Game metrics use Windows event tracing rather than injecting into or modifying game processes.
Field notes
The panel can be opened with Ctrl + Alt + G, pinned, resized, or configured to show selected readings. For games, the page describes frame rate, 1% low, frame-time graphs, and GPU power-limit status; it says these metrics come from Windows event tracing without touching the game process. The FAQ identifies a compatibility boundary: laptop-controlled fans and motherboard temperatures may not be available.
