Hey guys, just looking for a good program to monitor temperatures for my cpu and sensors. Looked at some of the programs such as Motherboard monitor. Anybody of any suggestions from their own experience? Thanks.

well i can go into the cmos or bios, one or the other, and check it there, but then i wouldnt be able to look at it in windows. i found a program called core temp. not sure how accurate it is but i idle around 36 degrees C, with no load on both cores, and around 45-50 degrees C with load, UT2004 that is. here is the link

What is WC? Water Cooling?

The problem is that some of the tools still are misinterpreting the C2D temps. So, I would research on some of the overclocking websites because those people are anal about their temps.

For example, I believe that TAT reports about 15C higher than the actual temp.
