Version: FreeMeter 2.8.2
"Barebone Perfection"
Pros: Im A Pro-Reviewer. Meaning I Don't Review Lightly.
System Resource: Very Very Very Low Usage
Usability: To The Point
Comments: Doing what it states, it displays the cpu MHz MEGAHERTZ; NOT the Percentile (%) of cpu used.
Good For: Telling Your Cpu performance, if your cpu is underperforming, by looking at the MHz speed stated and comparing with your cpu advertised speed.
eg: My Laptop, is a 1.83gigahertz capable processor. Inquisitive, i set my cpu performance to the desired levels (using my Acer Emanager) ranging from low>medium>high>maximum. I monitor the cpu speed stated and realised my cpu runs at about max 900MHz at my usual medium cpu speed setting and on the maximum setting my cpu reached speeds of 1803.31 MHz of cpu performance. consistent with advertised.
other desc:
barebones program
VERY STABLE (no errors or crashes recorded thus far)
My Personal Stamp:
this software is tested spyware and virus FREE
Cons: turnoffs: for fussy users, the interface is THE PLAINEST POSSIBLE. not many options other than a small (somewhat ugly to some) plain windows explorer typical window with CPU speed stated in MHz and nothing else.
could-be con: for some, they might want a MORE realtime monitor. this monitors cpu ONLY in 10seconds intervals, which is actually my preferred.
cons: barebones.
