Now useful: Widgets to track CPU, memory, and video card usage are now available in the Windows 11 test build

Widgets have been around since Windows 11 was launched, but they haven't gained much popularity among users. Well, it looks like Microsoft is going to change that - in the new developer build of the system, we spotted several new really useful widgets that will allow you to monitor the use of CPU, memory and video card resources or view the speed of your Wi-Fi or Ethernet network. In general, similar data can be monitored through the Task Manager, but the use of widgets makes everything much easier.

According to testers, everything works rather "crookedly" now - sometimes the information is not displayed, sometimes the widget bar simply stops working, but by the time the stable version is released, everything should be optimised and the Windows 11 widget bar will really make some sense.
