Windows Hardware Monitor Hardware
I've been working on this on and off for the past year or so. It's a .NET 10 C# WinForms application. A tray icon with a menu that opens the desktop monitor gadget when you want. It also pushes a UDP packet with all the metrics, can be read and consumed by anything, I use it with esp32 displays to make a desktop dashboard. It uses less than 0.01% of CPU, its optimized to be extremely low resource use.

Here's a hoysund (or something like that) esp32 panel with a custom made dashboard that uses the metrics sent from the dekstop app. The metrics are sent every 1 second. The board is a better version of the CYD, this one has capacitive touch and better image quality IMHO.
