Hardware monitor for gamers

See every part
of your PC.

Visor shows your CPU, GPU, RAM, motherboard, drives, network, display and FPS live on one screen, explains every number in plain English, and points out the settings that are quietly costing you frames.

Everything Visor shows

Every number that matters, readable at a glance

No more four tools and a wall of tables. Each part has its own color, the numbers are big, and every value comes with a plain-language explanation of what it means.

CPU

  • Model, cores and threads, codename, cache
  • Per-core clock and load
  • Package and per-core temperature
  • Power draw (W) and instruction sets

Graphics card (GPU)

  • Load, core and memory clocks
  • VRAM used out of total
  • Temperature, hotspot, fan, power
  • PCIe generation × lanes, driver version

Memory (RAM)

  • Used out of total
  • Running speed vs. the speed it is rated for
  • Each stick: maker, part number, size
  • Slots and channels

Motherboard & BIOS

  • Board model, BIOS version and date
  • Every fan the board reports
  • Main voltages

SSD & HDD

  • Health % and life left
  • Temperature and SMART warnings
  • Live read/write speed and free space

Network

  • Live upload and download speed
  • Ping
  • The adapter in use

Display

  • Resolution
  • Current refresh rate vs. the monitor's maximum
  • Every connected monitor

Battery (laptops)

  • Wear level
  • Charge cycles
  • Charge and discharge rate

In game Pro

  • FPS and 1% lows
  • Frametime graph
  • Read with PresentMon, no injection

What can be read depends on your hardware. Some motherboards don't report fans or voltages, and some laptops hide certain sensors. Visor shows what your PC reports, and tells you plainly when something can't be read.

Smart Check

Find the settings that cost you frames

Plenty of gamers pay for a 165 Hz monitor and fast RAM, then never get either, because Windows or the BIOS kept a default. Smart Check finds these in seconds, explains why they matter and shows how to fix them.

72Health score

Example: 3 things worth fixing. Fix them and the score climbs right away.

  • Your 165 Hz monitor is set to 60 Hz Important

    Windows often falls back to 60 Hz after a new monitor or a driver update, so the picture is less smooth than your monitor can do. One click to fix, and it can be undone.

  • RAM runs at 4800 MT/s, rated for 6000 Important

    XMP / EXPO is off in the BIOS. Visor walks you through turning it on, but never touches the BIOS for you.

  • GPU linked at PCIe ×4 instead of ×16 Worth a look

    Usually the card is in the wrong slot. Visor measures under load, because cards slow their link down at idle to save power.

  • “Power saver” plan while gaming Worth a look

    Your CPU is being held back. Switch to a performance plan in one click, and switch back any time.

  • CPU slowing itself down from heat (thermal throttling) Important

    Flagged when it happens, with the usual causes: dust, dried-out thermal paste or a fan that has stopped.

In-game overlay · Pro

FPS over your game, without touching it

Visor's overlay is a transparent, click-through window that stays on top. No DLL injection, no DirectX hooks, no reading game memory. Frame rates come from PresentMon, the open-source tool many benchmarking apps rely on.

  • FPS, 1% lows and a frametime graph that shows stutter instantly
  • CPU and GPU temperatures and load, plus VRAM in use
  • Saved as per-game session reports you can review and export to CSV

Works best with games set to Borderless or Windowed (most games today). Some games in exclusive fullscreen may draw over the overlay.

Share your spec

Show off your rig in one image

One click and Visor turns your specs into a PNG card sized for Facebook or Discord. Handy for showing off, and for asking friends what to upgrade next.

  • CPU, GPU, RAM, motherboard, display, storage and health score
  • Nothing personal: no PC name, no user name
  • Free adds a small watermark; Pro doesn't

Free vs Pro

Genuinely free. Pro is US$2.99, once.

Free shows you everything and what looks wrong. Pro adds the fixes, the in-game overlay, history and alerts, on 2 PCs. No subscription, and a 7-day free trial first.

Safe and private

See everything, risk nothing

Visor is built to read, not to tinker. A monitoring tool should never be the thing that breaks your PC.

Read-only

No fan control, no overclocking, no voltage changes. Visor reads what your hardware reports and shows it to you.

Fixes you can undo

One-click fixes only touch safe Windows settings: display refresh rate, power plan and Game Mode. Each one asks first and comes with an undo.

No telemetry, no ads

Your hardware details and sensor readings stay on your PC. Visor only goes online to activate and check a Pro license.

PawnIO, explained honestly

Some sensors, like per-core CPU temperatures, voltages and motherboard fans, can only be read through a kernel driver. Visor has no driver of its own; it uses PawnIO, a signed open-source driver that replaces the old WinRing0 driver Windows Defender flags as risky.

Nothing extra without asking

PawnIO is not bundled in our installer. The app asks first, then opens the official installer from pawnio.eu if you agree. Without it Visor still works, with fewer sensors.

Light, so it won't steal frames

We built Visor to stay under 2% CPU and 150 MB of RAM while it updates every second, because a monitor shouldn't be what costs you FPS.

FAQ

What people ask before downloading

What is Visor?

Visor is a real-time hardware monitor for Windows 10 and 11. It shows CPU, GPU, RAM, motherboard, storage, network, display, battery and in-game FPS, explains them in plain language, and its Smart Check finds settings that cost you frames. It is made by Tetono in Thailand, free to use, with an optional one-time Pro upgrade for US$2.99.

Is it safe with anti-cheat games?

Visor is designed not to touch your game at all: no DLL injection, no graphics hooks and no reading game memory. The overlay is just a transparent window on top, and FPS comes from PresentMon, which reads data from Windows rather than from the game. We can't guarantee what every game's developer decides, but Visor does none of the things anti-cheat systems look for.

What is PawnIO and do I need it?

PawnIO is a signed, open-source driver used to read low-level sensors such as per-core CPU temperatures, voltages and motherboard fans. It is optional: Visor works without it, with fewer sensors. If you agree, the app opens the official installer from pawnio.eu, and you can remove it any time from Settings › Apps.

What's the difference between Free and Pro?

Free includes the live dashboard for every part, full specs, and Smart Check with every finding and a health score. Pro, a one-time US$2.99, adds step-by-step and one-click fixes, the in-game overlay, history and per-game reports, alerts, accent themes, a tray widget and a watermark-free spec card, on 2 PCs.

Will Visor slow my PC down?

Visor only reads sensors and draws the results; it runs no heavy background work. Our target is under 2% CPU and under 150 MB of RAM while updating every second, and it stops reading everything when you exit the app.
