About

CoreX is a lightweight hardware monitor for Linux that keeps you informed about your system's health at all times.

  • Monitors all sensors on your PC — CPU temperature, GPU temperature, fan speeds, voltages, and more
  • Displays real-time CPU and RAM usage with clear, readable graphs
  • Includes an always-on-top overlay widget — visible while gaming, working, or browsing, without switching windows
  • Minimal resource footprint — CoreX watches your system without slowing it down
  • Clean, native Linux interface built with PyQt6
