GamePP Frequently Asked Questions - Professional Hardware Monitoring Software FAQ Knowledge Base

Can GamePP display temperature for external hard drives ?

硬件外设

It supports displaying temperature for some external hard drives. Methods: 1. Connect the external hard drive to the computer via data cable; 2. Open the GamePP monitoring interface and switch to the "Hard Drive" module; 3. If the drive supports SMART, the software will display its temperature normally; 4. If no temperature shows, confirm if the model is compatible with the software; 5. Updating computer USB drivers helps with drive status recognition. It is recommended to use SMART-supported external drives for more complete monitoring data.  

Can GamePP monitor key latency on mechanical keyboards ?

硬件外设

Currently, it does not support direct detection of mechanical keyboard key latency, but indirect observation is possible: 1. Open GamePP monitoring to view CPU usage and input latency data; 2. Use specialized keyboard latency testing software for comprehensive judgment; 3. Ensure the mechanical keyboard drivers are updated to the latest version; 4. Close unnecessary background programs to reduce system resource usage and lower input latency; 5. If key latency issues are severe, consider replacing the keyboard. It is recommended to combine multiple tools for accurate detection.  

Does GamePP support monitoring battery level for Bluetooth headsets ?

硬件外设

It does not directly display Bluetooth headset battery levels, but related info can be obtained as follows: 1. Ensure the Bluetooth headset is properly connected to the computer system; 2. Check the battery in the Windows taskbar Bluetooth device list (requires headset support); 3. GamePP can monitor CPU and GPU usage to help determine if headset latency relates to hardware load; 4. For headsets without system battery display, use the manufacturer's companion software. It is recommended to use system tools alongside to check headset status for optimal experience. 

How to view USB device operating status using GamePP ?

硬件外设

Viewing steps: 1. Open GamePP software and go to the "Hardware Monitoring" module; 2. Insert the USB device into the computer's USB port and check if it appears in the software's device list; 3. For supported USB device types, the software displays operating status data like power consumption and temperature; 4. If the USB device doesn't show, update computer USB drivers and restart GamePP; 5. Avoid using damaged or low-quality USB cables to prevent recognition issues. Not all USB devices support monitoring; it depends on actual compatibility.  

Can GamePP recognize external monitors connected to laptops ?

硬件外设

Yes, it can recognize them. Methods: 1. Connect the external monitor to the laptop via cable and set it to "Extend" or "Duplicate" display mode in the system; 2. Open the GamePP monitoring interface and view graphics card related data; 3. If graphics card load shows significant changes, it indicates the software has recognized the external monitor; 4. Monitorable content includes graphics card temperature, game frame rates, and other performance data related to the external monitor. Compatibility of different interfaces (e.g., HDMI, DP) affects display effects; choose suitable interfaces for connection.
