Quick CPU is a performance tuning program for Windows that provides power plan customization and monitoring tools to maintain PCs in optimal conditions.
Processor
Users can check hardware parameters such as core status, frequency, temperature, voltage and loading. The dashboard comes with performance charts and graphs that visualize CPU behavior to identify bottlenecks. This is especially helpful for diagnosing thermal throttling or processor spikes during intensive tasks.
The app allows you to enable or disable CPU core parking. You can also control frequency scaling, adjusting how aggressively your main hardware component increases or decreases clock speeds. On top of that, it is possible to enhance power plan settings by exposing hidden processor-related parameters. You are able to adjust minimum and maximum states and cooling policy behavior.
Indicators
In addition, it is possible to monitor whether the system is currently being throttled due to power limits or thermal constraints. Displayed information helps you understand performance drops and detect potential issues. As for optimization, you can create multiple profiles to specific usage contexts, such as gaming or productivity.
Features
- similar to HWMonitor, there are graphs for CPU load and temperature;
- suitable for both Intel and AMD products;
- possible to log and document activities for in-depth analysis;
- free to download and use;
- compatible with modern Windows versions.
