Overview
CPU Aesthetic Animated Monitor — 60+ Characters, Core X-Ray, Heritage, Mario Pixel Art
Your CPU stats are no longer just numbers — they're a vibe. RunCat CPU brings 60+ unique animated characters and the revolutionary Core X-Ray system to your Stream Deck, turning your multi-core CPU performance into stunning, real-time digital art on your keys.
