SpeedFan is an excellent freeware for cpu and board temps alike. You can download that free at http://www.almico.com/sfdownload.php

i reccomend the program "bios" for monitioring temps.

not sure where you can dl a windows version thoough.

You don't download a windows version of the bios. The bios is the "Basic Input/Output System" which is only run by a computer when first powered on.

i think he was being a smart-ass like in most of his other posts.

I know, but I wanted to correct him for my own reasons, not for him being a smart-ass

. Plus, the amount of not so literate computer people that may read that and look into downloading a random bios version and trying to flash theres to it after having read random instructions is a possibility, so I wanted to clear that up.

In regards to the topic, I use speedfan, and it seems a good application thus far. Also, due to me having an Asus motherboard, I use their PC Probe application also.
