Temperature monitor ??

Hi,

I've just finished building my pc and I'm just wondering if u know any software that will allow me to monitor the temperature of the cpu and gpu.

Thanks,

PS: I would also like to check if everything is working fine like voltage etc ? How do I check these stuff ?

HW monitor is in my view a good all rounder.

Real Temp or Core Temp as well for cpu cores.

Looking ok, ideally you need to test at full load.

I don't know how to use the prim95 ;/ it seems so hard to run the test.

When you run prime and the dialogue box appears (I tend to use Blend) click the button and go and that's it.

If you get any problems one of the worker threads will stop it will be highlighted red or you get a BSOD or a system restart.
You wont get a list of possible problems.

If your overclocked then you may need to make some adjustments or if your at stock check your memory voltage.

Prime95 just stress tests the PC. Using one of the above mentioned utilities you can monitor the temperatures to see if your cooling is working ok and if you have an overclock that it is stable
