Partial Building the UI HUD is standard desktop programming, but gathering low-level hardware telemetry (VRAM, accurate GPU temps, low-overhead process monitoring) across diverse Windows hardware requires native C++/C# Windows APIs.
What it would actually take: The app requires a C# (.NET/WPF) or C++ desktop foundation leveraging Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI), Performance Counters, and specialized hardware libraries like LibreHardwareMonitor. The hard part is efficiently reading low-level driver stats (NVIDIA NVAPI, AMD ADL, Intel GPU metrics) without triggering antivirus warnings or degrading system performance. Windows systems programming and hardware sensor API familiarity are required.
