MetSIDash

Metrics & System Information Dashboard

A lightweight, real-time desktop dashboard for Windows that surfaces everything (well, a lot of useful things anyway 😉) happening inside your machine — CPU cores, thermals, memory pressure, disk health, GPU vitals, network throughput, Bluetooth devices, and more — all in one clean, always-on panel.

⚠ Hardware varies

CPU Monitoring

Per-core usage and live clock speeds alongside ACPI thermal zone temperatures. Detects logical & physical core counts, cache topology, NUMA nodes, and base clock.

Per-core Clock speed Thermals NUMA

Memory & Paging

Live RAM consumption, commit charge percentage, page-file usage, and hard page-fault rate. Pressure indicators highlight when the system begins swapping to disk.

RAM Commit % Page file Page faults/s

GPU & Thermals

Temperature, fan RPM, and power draw, if supported by the vendor and their driver. Also tracks 3D engine utilisation and VRAM consumption in real time. Some iGPUs and certain discrete GPUs report only temperature or nothing at all.

Temp Fan RPM Power draw VRAM 3D util

Disk Health & I/O

Per-drive read/write throughput and busy percentage. S.M.A.R.T. health status and drive temperature. Availability varies by drive type — most SATA drives are supported; NVMe support depends on the drive and driver, and some USB enclosures may not expose S.M.A.R.T. at all.

Read/Write MB/s Busy % S.M.A.R.T. Temperature

Network

Per-adapter Rx/Tx throughput with live sparklines, link speed, IPv4 & IPv6 addresses, and TCP retransmit rate.

Rx/Tx IPv4 & IPv6 Sparklines TCP retransmits

System Information

CPU brand, vendor, and ISA support flags (SSE, AVX, AVX-512, AES-NI, SHA, FMA, BMI…). Motherboard make/model and BIOS version alongside all installed GPU adapters with driver versions and VRAM.

ISA flags Motherboard BIOS GPU adapters

OS & Security

Windows edition, version and build number. Security posture at a glance: Secure Boot, UAC, Hyper-V presence, RDP state, Developer Mode, Test Mode, and long-path support.

Win version Secure Boot UAC Hyper-V RDP

⚠ Adapter required

Bluetooth

Local radio adapter name, address, and Bluetooth version. Lists all paired and connected devices with their class description and authentication status.

Adapter info BT version Paired devices

⚠ Laptops only

Battery & Uptime

Charge level, chemistry, design capacity, and current charge rate for laptops. On desktops without a battery the tile will show system uptime instead.

Some features depend on your hardware and Windows version.
MetSIDash detects what’s available at startup and silently hides anything your system doesn’t support.

CPU temperature — requires ACPI thermal zones in your firmware; common on laptops, often absent on desktops.
Fan speed and power draw depend on what each vendor exposes through their WDDM driver — some iGPUs and certain discrete GPUs report only temperature, or nothing at all.
Bluetooth — requires a Bluetooth radio adapter
Battery — laptop/UPS only; desktop systems automatically show system uptime in its place.
S.M.A.R.T. disk health — drive-dependent; most SATA/SAS drives report full data, NVMe support varies by drive and driver, and some USB enclosures may not expose S.M.A.R.T. at all.

Zero Driver Dependencies

MetSIDash runs straight out of the box — no extra software, runtimes, or vendor packages to install. Everything it needs is already part of Windows.

Compact Overlay Mode

Switch to a minimal always-on-top overlay that keeps key vitals visible while you game or work, without taking up your full screen.

Diagnostic Logger

Timestamped log file written on every session. Records a full system-metrics snapshot at startup for easy troubleshooting.
