This is good info. How can you tell what temperature your processor is running at?

Is there a program that can check the temps of your internal hardware? I recall having one in the past but can't remember what/where I got it.

you can leave a program like HW monitor open while gaming, it will give record the high temperature.

Hooking up a second monitor shouldn't add to your heat...

Temp Range

Hi.
I would like to know if it is ok to have a large difference between the idle and load CPU temps. My CPU idles at 36-38C, and under load it reaches 54-59C. It is a overclocked P4 2.40B at 2.754Ghz. It's very stable.
OronDF.

Hi orondf,
yes that is a perfectly normal idle/load range.
