Vista Temp Monitoring Gadget?

UNiQU3 · 24 May 2007 at 00:06

Hi, I've been looking for a temperature monitoring gadget for my CPU and maybe GPU if possible. Anyone seen any about because I can’t find one?

Cheers.

Does this have gadgets for the sidebar?

yes but it has to run in the background as well as the gadget.

Yes Everest software can put into Sidebar easily (only if you open the software first) then you can monitor CPU, video card,etc..

Yeah speed fans the way to go, though there seems to be a memory leak with it so I dont run it any more, I just use my Uguru clock.

I have tried to use everest but cant get the sidebar to display anything, i'll try the others and see what they are like

EDIT: Got everest working but the skins are horrible, are the others any better?

Can speedfan display the temps in the sidebar without having to have the rest of the program running?

No, but you can start Speed fan minimised and drag it into your startup folder. I stopped using it due to memory leaks though.

There are a couple of Sidebar Gadgets which display speed fan information. Check out the website for the Dual core gagdet, hes the chap which made one, but there is also another which looks a little nicer on the site. I am sure I put a screen grab of speed fan in another thread on this forum.
