They all get the info from the same place, so once configured correctly the data displayed should be identical.

I have found that if you run more than one program at the the same time it can affect some diode readings and give strange results.

I found Everest Home the easiest to use as it auto configures and displays GPU info and is a useful complete package, but I use MBM 5 and ATI tool to display the info to an external LCD screen.

I use Everest mainly, but it displays the wrong temps for me to start with and doesn't auto-detect my gfx overclock. As soon as I load ATISystemManager (which came with the board) or the gfx overclocking software, it loads both fine. Go figure :confused:

Motherboard monitor is the only one i've got to work with the expert board.
