CPU Temp Gadget
You can find a lot of CPU temperature gadgets online to keep a closer look at what is going on with your CPU. Many of them can be found free to download and here are some examples:
Core Temp 0.99.5 will help you know the temperature of your microprocessor even it is an Intel or AMD. It is import to have this type of gadget on your computer because if your components temperature is high you can loose the components due to overheating and even if you don’t lose them your computer will have low performance.
Core Temp application helps you to control the microprocessor temperature, the applications gives you the possibility to know more information about the chip and it can worn you if your CPU reaches a certain temperature.
Cpu Clock Utility is another CPU temperature gadget. This is the application that will allow you to take control of your Cpu and to know what’s going on in there. CPU Clock Utility gives its users the possibility to control in real-time the CPU load level, throttle and its frequency. The users are able to monitor the 3 features above and adjust their Cpu performance.
The application supports the next CPU models: AMD K8, Intel Pentium 4 & Xeon, AMD K7, Intel Core 2, Intel Pentium M/Centrino, and Intel Core Solo/Core Duo/Centrino Duo.
The application detects and shows to its users any form of their CPU clock throttling, charge level, discharge/charge rate, displays in real time the battery life time and the CPU core temperature.
This is a complex CPU temperature gadget with an easy to use interface.
CPU-Z 1.51 is a free application that will detect and show all the data from the processor and from the hardware of your computer. It is easy to use, just run the tool and you will see on screen: the supported power supply, the model and the name of the processor, over clock detection, out and in clock and many more.
This application is very useful is you want to know if the processor has the speed modified or you have in your computer the type of hardware you paid for.
If you need a gadget that can show more than your CPU performance, Rainmeter is the application for you. It will show you the hardware use, upload/download speed and CPU use. If you want more you can set up a feature for weather forecast, technology news and computer news. You can customize it by downloading new skins from the web and by deciding what type of application you want to see on screen.
Real temp 3.40 is another CPU temperature application that you can find it free to download, but it will only work if you have an Intel single Core, Quad Core and Dual Core, it doesn’t support Pentium 4. These processors have a DTS (this is a digital thermal sensor) which reports data of the temperature to TjMax (is the optimal temperature for CPU).
The main features for this application are:
-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â read the temperature information
-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â has test sensor that are able to check the DTS for signs of problems
-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â it has a high temperature alarm, and if this happens has a shutdown feature to protect your computer
-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â shows max/minimum temperatures
-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â it is very accurate and quick
PC Wizard is a tool for hardware detection but it can do so much more. It is able to analyze many types of hardware, for example Cache performance, CPU performance, Hard Disk performance, RAM performance, Flash Media performance, CD-ROM or DVD-ROM performance. This is a free application to download.
CoolMon 2 Buid is a tool for monitoring the vital systems of you computer. The application can display status form a remote personal computer and if you want can publish the information on a webpage. The main features for this application:
-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Ram and page file usage
-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â CPU performance
-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Hard drive usage
-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â MotherBoard monitor temperatures
-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Processor usage
-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Number of Threads
-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Number of Processes
-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Computer name
-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Computer Uptime
-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â All IP addresses
-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Total Bytes received and send
-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Processor type
-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Date and time
This is a very complex application and if you need it you can download it for free.
The next application is also a free, a simple gadget that allows its users to monitor the CPU performance right from their desktop. It indicates in real-time the current usage and a graph of your computer’s CPU. It can be customized: you can change the colors; it can be set to alpha-blending or transparency. The application comes with a tool provides the next features: supports multiple CPUs and displays detailed CPU information.
Hardware Sensor Monitor is a program that shows you all the information you want to know about your computer. It is easy to use, all you have to do is click the icon and you will see real-time data for the components you want.
The application is able to restrict heat production and CPU performance when it gets to hot thanks to a feature called CPU Thorttling. Displays drive temperature and hardware monitoring data. The monitoring information can be viewed remotely via WMI, SMP or PerfMon.
SpeedFan it control temperature and fans on it users system. It displays the temperature of the HD, the micro, charge of the CPU and fan speed. SpeenFan offers you the possibility to control the fan speed so now you are able to speed it up for your computer to cool down faster. It is able to detect automatically the information, so it is easy to use.
These are some CPU temperature computer gadgets and, as you can see, you have a lot to choose from.
