What do you think?!

Hi every one,

First of all that you all for your great help and support.

I am a new member to Alienware family.

I got my new Pc before 2 months ago. Its the Area 51 R2 - 2016 (i7 6900, Sli Gtx 1080, 64 DDr4, 960 Pro M.2 with some other SSD, HDD storages and 4k Asus Ultra wide 34")

I am mainly using my computer for gaming and some office work, also for watching movies.

So I was thinking of adding a small monitor as second output to my computer so I can keep all the important information for my computer part visual while playing, such as (m.2, gpu, cpu... temperature and load).

Here is what I did.

Its regular car Tft secreen, which is 9" and has HDMI input. The setup was as easy as any normal computer monitor, but I was forced from the monitor it self to lower its resolution to prevent the flickering while its in the manufacture recommended resolution. 

Here is how it look:

Also, if someone can advice me with some good and nice software to monitor all my computer parts specially the m.2 ssd. I tried many software and couldn't find the right one which give me the right reading.. all of them has different reading to my drive. Also if there is any professional software can read all the sensors in my pc parts, in real time, even if it will cost some money.

Hi Helmm‌,

That's a very cool setup! Regarding the software, you can try HWMonitor, there's a PRO version. But you can also try the free version first and see if that will be enough.
