How to check the CPU temperature ?
Often time , i like to know my computer, motherboard or CPU temperature. It’s will be better if some utility tools provide the functionality to show all my processors or CPU temperature ~
Here is the two free tools that i used to check my CPU temperature
Core Temp
Software Name : Core Temp
Website : http://www.alcpu.com/CoreTemp/
Version : 0.99.3
The Core Temp does exactly what we want, it just shows temperature of each individual core in each processor in our system! It’s simple and straightforward. In addition , it’s just a standalone executable file, we just need to double click it to run the program

If you have any others useful tools to check the CPU temperature , please leave me a message. Thanks 🙂
Are there any Java API for the same purpose?
I found HWMonitor at http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/hwmonitor-pro.html more light-weight and portable
Very efficiently written story. It will be useful to anybody who utilizes it, as well as me. Keep doing what you are doing – for sure i will check out more posts.
I use speedfan, and find it works very well. It helped to diagnose the problem with my PC rebooting randomly, as the temperatures it displayed were :
Temp 1 26 C (normal)
Temp 2 74 C (too hot)
Temp 3 51 C (too hot)
HD 0 40 C (normal)
HD 1 43 C (normal)
recommended software, because it eliminates a cause of potential PC problems.
