Hi,
Sorry if these are rather basic questions, but I'd rather get it right (and in the second case before I fry my processor...)
1) How can I add GPU-Z to the start menu, alongside other apps like CPU-Z. Presumably I just copy the .exe file to Program Files and then add a folder to the start menu which references it. Or do I add it directly to the start menu? If I move it to Program Files, should it go in (x86) or the 64 bit folder?
2) Should I trust the CPU temperatures reported in ASUS Probe II, or HWMonitor? At this moment, APII reports a CPU temp of 36 deg, and Motherboard at 30 deg. HWMonitor reports 36/30 deg for motherboard temps, and 23 deg lower down the screen for CPU temps. For reference, CoreTemp reports 23 deg also.
It seems likely that the 23deg is the figure to watch when stressing, but I am slightly put off using HWMonitor, as it also reports voltages as 1.86V, 3.41V, 8.11V for the +3.3V, +5V and +12V rails respectively, which I simply don't believe! (APII reports 3.34V, 5.07V and 11.95V which seems much more likely!).
Thanks.
