Ultra CPU Monitor

Ultra CPU Monitor is a lightweight Windows application designed with a single goal in mind: to help you keep an eye on the CPU usage right from your system tray.

Since this is a portable program, it is important to mention that it doesn’t leave any traces in the Windows Registry.

You can copy it on any USB flash drive or other devices, and take it with you whenever you need to check the CPU performance on the breeze, without having to go through installation steps.

The tool runs quietly in the system tray without interfering with your work. The program’s features can be activated directly from the system tray. Everything is kept as simple and clear as possible, so you don’t need to consult a help manual for tweaking the dedicated parameters.

Ultra CPU Monitor gives you the possibility to select how many icons that reveal the CPU usage should be displayed in the system tray. What’s more, you can enable or disable the text mode where the CPU value is displayed inside of a square or reveal only the real-time activity of your CPU with the aid of a minimalistic graph.

The tool enables you to pick the update time from several preset values, alter the color for the foreground and background, set the transparency, as well as save the current configuration.

Less experienced users may take advantage of the lack of configurable settings and tweak the entire operation with minimal effort. On the downside, it would have been useful to see support for a custom update time.

If you are looking for a simple-to-use software application that allows you to monitor the CPU usage, you can give Ultra CPU Monitor a try and see what it can do for you.
