NZXT is proud to announce the launch of its advanced CAM version 2.0 PC monitoring software. Now equipped with double the data detection, a customizable interface and a highly functional FPS overlay, CAM 2.0 makes it easier than ever to monitor and maintain your PC.

CAM offers a wealth of information for both new and advanced users alike that are interested in maximizing the efficiency of their PC. With its all-encompassing approach to PC health, CAM actively monitors and records all essential statistics including network speeds, storage space, component temperatures and load usage over time. Additionally, new advanced detection offers comprehensive data on CPU / GPU specifications, motherboard voltages, HDD S.M.A.R.T. data and much, much more.



With a user friendly and modular dashboard, CAM offers the freedom to display a wide variety of information in an intuitive manner that suits your specific needs. It is the first PC monitoring software to include an in-game overlay that allows you to seamlessly monitor your frame rate, CPU/GPU usage, temperatures and more while gaming. Now with CAM basic support for both Android and iOS, you can access your data from anywhere using your mobile device.

CAM users with existing CAM components such as the GRID+ or Kraken coolers will also see improvements in customization and control for their devices through a complete user interface refresh. In May, Android users will be able to control their CAM components with their mobile devices through an upcoming update for the Android app.

More than just a piece of software, CAM is a companion you can trust. CAM is completely FREE and available for download immediately through our website, the iTunes store and Google Play.

Do you need NZXT hardware in the system to run it or is it something like HWmonitor and you can use it in any PC?

Yeah, my 16 gigs of 2400 RAM just became 32 gigs @ ? MHz - great software! I immediately uninstalled it. It's every bit as bad as the first version. Pretty useless even if it worked right...
No wonder their cases all look the same; they're retarded! (excuse me, I mean "mentally challenged"). How else can you explain why they keep releasing useless, non-working software that undermines customer confidence in their entire product line? Are they trying to be like Corsair?, and if so, didn't anyone tell them that Corsair is going downhill fast? These two (Corsair and NZXT) are joining the ranks of Thermaltake and Cooler Master for producing cheap, plastic, forgettable cases and other crappy overpriced peripherals...

Just guess, but probably Computer Accelerating Magic.

But in reality, probably Control And Monitoring.
More like Craptastic And Meaningless.

Why is it that hardware vendors software (Asus, HP, Corsair, NZXT...) is always crappy and buggy?

I saw a video on this and it's better than what they started with. I'm waiting on more reviews before I pt it on my system.

i also find the software/support team for CAM to be very efficent :D :rockout: have had several back and forths via email and the CAM FB page regarding feedback/errors. Windows 10 isnt officially supported yet and I have had several updates to CAM taking win 10 into consideration.

2.1.11 is the current version if im not mistaken, they release updates every 10-14 days... at least so far its been like that :p
