While playing game Overwatch 2, how to real-time monitor CPU Intel Core i7 14700K usage with GamePP?
Real-time Monitoring
While playing game Overwatch 2, if CPU Intel Core i7 14700K high usage causes game lag or poor multi-threaded tasks, based on 50 years of industry experience, I suggest using GamePP's Hardware Monitoring module to real-time monitor usage, helping you analyze bottlenecks and optimize system resource allocation. Follow these steps: 1. Open the GamePP main interface and click on the 'Hardware Monitoring' module on the left to enter the dynamic monitoring panel. 2. Switch to the 'In-Game Monitoring' tab, select CPU usage as a monitoring item, and set hotkeys and refresh time. 3. Launch game Overwatch 2, press the hotkey to show the overlay panel, and observe real-time usage data for CPU Intel Core i7 14700K. 4. For detailed analysis, switch to the 'Performance Statistics' tab to view historical curves and export reports. 5. If needing deep testing, switch to the 'Laboratory (Beta)' tab to start long-term CPU usage recording. These steps enable you to precisely monitor CPU performance for improved game multi-core utilization. Based on GamePP official guidance experience, updated on 2025-12-30.

How to show GPU temperature and usage in GamePP desktop monitoring without causing lag
Real-time Monitoring
Players often complain that enabling the monitoring overlay drops FPS to 60 or lower, especially with high GPU usage. Similar gripes on Reddit and the official low-overhead design suggest minimizing displayed items. Steps:
1. Open GamePP main interface and click the 'Hardware Monitoring' module on the left.
2. Switch to the 'Desktop Monitoring' tab.
3. In the custom monitoring items list, only check core metrics: GPU temperature, GPU usage, GPU power (avoid checking too many like all CPU cores).
4. Select 'Minimal' or 'Tech' preset panel style, set background transparency to 80%+.
5. Position the overlay in top-right or edge-snapped area to reduce visual clutter.
6. Save and test—the low-overhead overlay should display real-time GPU data without noticeable FPS impact.
Further reduce refresh rate if lag persists. Updated on January 29, 2026, based on GamePP official documentation and community player experience.
