toast Posted July 12, 2008 Posted July 12, 2008 which is the best program to measure the pc temp i get different temps on different software Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Smith Posted July 12, 2008 Posted July 12, 2008 I'd say the best is to use more than one to verify your temps, and then when you know that such or such program lists them well, just use that one. Personnally, I use SpeedFan, but it needed a bit of adjustment on temps for my C2D to match CoreTemp. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toast Posted July 12, 2008 Posted July 12, 2008 in what way did it need adjustment Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Smith Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 I needed to calibrate it; To add a permanent +20C to core temperatures. But this was with speedfan4.33. I tried to find where now that I have 4.34 and I don't see anywhere to do that... Try Coretemp. and BTW, where did you find your Vista sidebar gadget on CPU activity ??

xly15 Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 I would have to say core temp or real temp. Then again I have a friend who make me a custom temp program. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syngensmyth Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 When testing I like HWMonitor because it shows so much info. It also keeps track of the top temp hit. Great for graphics because the temps drop so fast after a test that by the time you view the monitor it is cool already. http://www.cpuid.com/hwmonitor.php If you want something running constantly then I'd try something else.

Fanatic Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 You can use core temp and samorize together to make your own personal stat bar http://forums.overclockersclub.com/style_i.../attach_add.png You can do just about anything with it.

oblivescence Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 You can do just about anything with it. I wish. Oh wait am I supposed to be looking at the status indicator things or the scantily clad female? My eyes are having a little bit of trouble focusing on that side of the screen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
