checking temp when OCing

[harry18]

yo, you guys are always saying that make sure when your over clocking make sure it dosnt get to hot and whatnot, but how do you check how hot it is, the second i turned my pc on the cpu felt warm, but i could no way say what temp it was at?

or just check it through the bios, which is usually more accurate than 3rd party programs. When you boot up, follow the directions to get into the Bios, usually hit delete or something. When you get in, look around for the temps.

Yup, your bio's will tell you, and alot faster then having to wait until the Pc starts up
