What is the Best Always-Visible System Monitoring Tool?

Periodically my doggone laptop + two External Monitors (one VGA direct, the second HDMI Converter to USB)  just slows to a crawl.  

Hitting ctrl-alt-del and opening the task manager seems counter productive: in some sense I'm thinking the offending app(s) will STOP offending once I drill down far enough to wherever their drain on resources would documented.  By DEFINITION I've stopped focusing the apps simply by opening the Task Manager.

Is there any always-visible System Monitoring tool that will give not just the BASIC stats - CPU & whatnot - but also a DETAILED view of the apps being used, even the behind the scenes ones - and how, in real-time, they are all impacting the system.

Sincerely,

OT

the thing to do is look  for the process that slows your system down, not monitor it.
would you mind posting your system or mobo model + ram and disk  model?
then we can help you finding it
