Hardware Providers

Collection of libraries to explore hardware installed on the machine and relative parameters, including: clock, voltages and temperatures. For Dotnet Standard and 4.6

Component	Purpose	Standard	.Net 4.6
HardwareProviders	Contains base classes and interface to read and write directly on pc ports	✓	✓
HardwareProviders.CPU	Retrieves Intel and AMD processors installed and relative values	✓	✓
HardwareProviders.HDD	Retrieves hard drives and relative values	✓	✓

This project contains code extracted from Open Hardware Monitor and is released under the same license

CPU library Usage

Retrieving information about the current state of CPUs is incredibly simple.

TROUBLESHOOTING: Depending on Windows version you may need to run it as administrator to retrieve all values.
