Core Temp is a compact, no fuss, small footprint program to monitor CPU temperature.

The uniqueness of it is that it shows the temperature of each individual core in a each processor in your system! You can see in real time how the CPU temperature varies when you load your CPU.

Intel and AMD recently published detailed, public information about the "DTS" (Digital Thermal Sensor), which provides much higher accuracy and more relevant temperature reading than the standard thermal diode sensors do. (How it works).

This feature is supported on all Intel Core and Core 2 series of processors as well as the whole AMD´s AMD64 line of CPUs. (for a full list of supported CPUs: (CPU Support List).

Core Temp also has a logging feature, allowing a user to easily record the temperature of his processor(s) over any period of time, then the data can be easily transfered into an excel datasheet for easy graphing.

What's New in version 0.99.5:

  • Fix: Incorrect clock speeds reported on some systems. *
  • Fix: At startup Core Temp shows 0 (?) or 21 (?) on AMD K8 series.
  • Fix: Turion MK series recognition was wrong.
  • Fix: Properly detect Atom and Core i7 engineering samples.
  • Fix: Tri-Core AMD CPUs incorrectly shown as having only 2 cores and 2 threads in 64bit Core Temp binary.
  • Fix: System tray text was off center.
  • Fix: Penryn (mobile Core 2) processors reported as having 85C TjMax instead of 90C.
  • Fix: Settings window would open centered, and sometimes out of the desktop area.
  • Fix: System tray icon very small in Windows 2000/XP/2003.
  • Fix: AMD Athlon X2 4x50e series detected as 3x50e.
  • Fix: Using a negative offset on AMD systems results in "42949672xx°C" being displayed.
  • Fix: Add support for Mobile Athlon 64 X2 TK-xx series and Turion 64 MK-xx series.
  • Fix: Workaround added for when Core Temp fails to find supported CPUs on Phenom based systems.
  • Fix: PROCHOT signal from Intel CPUs was not picked up correctly. *
  • Fix: Core Temp would start out of the desktop area, and the main Window couldn't be seen/accessed.
  • Fix: False overheating warning on AMD systems.
  • Fix: False readings of over 200C° on AMD systems.
  • Fix: High/low temperatures would be reversed when "Show distance to TjMax" was enabled.
  • Fix: Clicking "Defaults" button in settings would enable logging when it should be disabled by default.
  • Fix: 23xx and 83xx series AMD Opterons recognized as 83xx and 23xx respectively.
  • Fix: System tray icons appear incorrectly on AMD K10 and newer CPUs.
  • Fix: "Show highest temp of each CPU" systemtray icon configuration sometimes reports duplicate readings.
  • Fix: G15 applet did not work after resuming from Sleep/Suspend.
  • Add: Completely new code for processor speed detection. *
  • Add: A comprehensive processor information window (F3 or Tools --> System information). *
  • Add: Thermal protection mechanism. (Look at Options menu, changed from 0.99.5.20 beta)
  • Add: Support for the latest AMD and Intel CPUs.
  • Add: Mini mode for GUI. (Double click anywhere to switch between modes) *
  • Add: Per core temperature offset adjustment. (Look at Options menu)
  • Add: Screenshots are now taken in the lossless but very compact PNG format.
  • Add: User defined text colors for main Window. (Options --> Settings)
  • Add: Show high/low temperatures. (Press F6 or the Tools menu to reset values)
  • Add: On/Off switch for G15 applet in Tools menu.
  • Add: Running several instances of Core Temp is now possible (enable in Settings).
  • Change: Temp turns Orange when temperature is over TControl, and Red when CPU is thottling/critical.
  • Change: Reorganized menu.
  • Change: TjMax for mobile Atom processors changed to 90C.
  • Change: "Lion" codename for AMD Turion was changed to "Griffin".
  • Change: Completely dropped support for older Windows NT OS, Windows XP or up is required. * (For Windows 2000: download GDIPlus.dll here http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?gdiplus)

It's telling me my temp is 32F? I don't think my computer is freezing? Do you?
