LibreHardwareMonitor replacing OpenHardwareMonitor

Watched a video from JayzTwoCents where he reviewed and critiqued a newer utility I didn't know existed and am VERY excited for!

This project seemingly picks up where OpenHardwareMonitor(a utility I have been using) left off several years ago.
Fully updated for recent hardware and expands on OHM in many important ways.
Jay had some design ideas, one of which I agree with, but I'm otherwise happy!

@PhyxionNL and all of the recent contributors
Thank you for picking this project up and taking it to the next level! Very cool indeed!
My suggestion? Add a Paypal donation link to your Github page.

@JayzTwoCents
Thanks for reviewing this utility! You're guys rock, as usual!

certainly looks better than HWMonitor, but everything jay raves about has been available from HWInfo for years now. So on-brand for jay

I guess there is a benefit as a content creator as LHM is completely open source so he doesn't have to worry about anything. But .csv logging or any of the useful functions have never cost money on HWInfo either

Gave it a spin and like everything that has come before, it does not stack up to HWInfo in the modern sensor readouts that we actually want to see these days. Even just looking at CPU sensors. GPU is alright but more of the same story.

Seems to use the same icon as OpenHardwareMonitor that I used to use back in the day.

It does, yeah.

Yes, but HWinfo plays havoc with some games and is a resource heavy utility.

The feature I agree with Jay on is a Dark Mode!! Very desired!
