System Monitor Desk Setup: Which PC Stats Belong on a Visual Control Page?
A system monitor Stream Deck setup earns desk space when it turns status into a decision. During a render, game, or live stream, a wall of numbers is less useful than a small page that tells you whether CPU load, memory pressure, or temperature needs attention.
Choose metrics by the decision they support
| Scenario | Useful first signal | What it changes |
|---|---|---|
| Live stream | CPU use and temperature | Whether to reduce background load. |
| Editing/export | CPU and memory | Whether another heavy task should wait. |
| Gaming | Temperature and one performance cue | Whether a performance issue is worth checking. |
The current MiraBox System Monitor listing states that it displays CPU usage, memory usage, and CPU temperature. Begin there. Do not fill the page with metrics you never act on, and do not assume sensors or hardware not named in the current listing are supported.
Check the latest plugin description in MiraBox SPACE. The practical hardware context is the Stream Dock collection and 293S.

FAQ
Should CPU temperature always be visible?
Show it when it changes your behavior, such as during a stream or long export; otherwise it can live on a second page.
Which stats are confirmed?
The current listing names CPU usage, memory usage, and CPU temperature.
Can I request another metric?
Yes. Explain the workflow and decision the metric would support.
