Do you guys know of any reasonably accurate software that measures the cpu temperature (and maybe the gpu temp)?
I've set myself up a little Inspiron 530 system and I need to check stability - my concern is that the stock heatsink here isn't up to the job of cooling the E8500. Having said that, I've got some software here called PC Wizard that has confused me even further. It states on one hand that core 1 & 2 are between 20-22 degrees idle, but then under another window it states the processor is currently running at 84 degrees!
