It does a lot of things but the only problem is it's not free.

Whats the point of monitoring the temperature of your PC?

So that you can determine if your system is running within the recommended heat ranges. The more heat the products sustain commonly the shorter the lifespan. Also, severe overheating could cause sudden pc shutdowns/instability etc.

With a decent flowing case and no overclocking it is rarely an issue.
