Hi together,

I recently switched from my Intel Macbook to a M2 (Max) Macbook and I didn't find any satisfying tool yet to monitor these stats. Does anyone have a recommendation? 🙂

I am posting it in this forum because I think it would be a great feature for the Stream Deck Plugin or the very awesome new floating menu !!

I already tried:

- [Fancy CPU and RAM usage gauges on the StreamDeck! (Also where are all the plugins at??)](https://community.folivora.ai/t/fancy-cpu-and-ram-usage-gauges-on-the-streamdeck-also-where-are-all-the-plugins-at/28738) (unfortunately the SystemKit didn't work. I think it just doesnt work with the M2 chip ?? [GitHub - gao-sun/SystemKit: macOS system library in Swift](https://github.com/gao-sun/SystemKit))
- [CPU Usage Monitor Widget - #13 by lennarto](https://community.folivora.ai/t/cpu-usage-monitor-widget/27848/13) (I probably did the folder / file structure incorrectly)
- [GitHub - marekkaczkowski/Touch-Bar-iStats: Show CPU/GPU/MEM temperature on Touch Bar with BetterTouchTool!](https://github.com/marekkaczkowski/Touch-Bar-iStats) doesnt support M1/M2 chips
- [https://apps.apple.com/de/app/istat-menus/id1319778037?mt=12](https://apps.apple.com/de/app/istat-menus/id1319778037?mt=12) works ok but doesnt support BTT 😕

I am happy for any tip, thanks !! 🙂
