HardwarePerformance

HardwarePerformance provides CPU, physical-memory, and GPU usage tiles from one shared one-second sampler. CPU and memory use lightweight Win32 APIs. GPU usage uses one dynamic PDH wildcard query and reports the busiest GPU engine, matching the aggregation model used by Task Manager.

CpuUsageTile

Shows total CPU utilization calculated from GetSystemTimes.

Setting	Default	Description
Format	CPU\n{0} %	{0} is the rounded utilization percentage.

    "Plugin": "HardwarePerformance",
    "Tile": "CpuUsageTile"
}

MemoryUsageTile

Shows physical memory usage from GlobalMemoryStatusEx. This matches Task Manager’s Memory figure: usable physical memory minus currently available physical memory.

Setting	Default	Description
Format	RAM\n{0} %	{0} is percentage, {1} is used GB, and {2} is usable total GB.

{
    "Plugin": "HardwarePerformance",
    "Tile": "MemoryUsageTile",
    "Settings": {
        "Format": "RAM\n{1:0.0}/{2:0.0}\n{0}%"
    }
}

GpuUsageTile

Shows the busiest engine across all WDDM GPUs. The wildcard query tracks GPU engine instances as processes start and exit instead of retaining stale per-process counters.

Setting	Default	Description
Format	GPU\n{0} %	{0} is the rounded utilization percentage.
