    Need small app to monitor CPU Temp

    Hey guys,

    I need a small *free* program to monitor CPU temp, and possibly mobo chipset temp as well. Do you know of any that I could download?

    Thanks,
    Web

    My personal favorite: MBM5 , you can put temps and fan speeds in the system tray.
    Nimo N152B (AMD R5, W11H) and plenty of other legacy systems :-)

    Thanks for your help guys. We figured out that the CPU was getting too hot and that's what was causing the computer to freeze up. We took the heatsink and fan off and placed a little thermal paste on the core, and also tightened the four screws that connected the copper part of the heatsink to the rest of it.

    The temp came down quite a bit and the computer hasn't frozen up since.

    Thanks Again,
