Where would you install a temperature probe on an Intel quad cpu?

Thanks for the link Jaffa.

Has anybody ever used this software?

How good & accurate is it?

Is more accurate.

 

[Notorious Lee]

Do you use this?

i find speedfan very accurate and easy to use.

i find speedfan to be very inaccurate, it gave me temps 25c too low

use TAT or coretemp, 0.95 core temp is best for vista

 

[Raikiri]

Yep, I do.

Coretemp reads directly from the cpu whereas others such as speedfan often read from the socket giving a lower (and incorrect) temp.
