Any good temp monitors for Vista x64?

[Shinare]

TAT and CoreTemp dont even run and speedfan has some funny information in it so I dont know if I can trust it. Heres a pic of speedfan with my 6420 @ 3GHz running orthos.

the wacky voltages and fan speeds is what makes me nervous.

GA-P35-DS3R @ 376fsb
E6420 @ 3GHz stock voltage
thermaltake silent 775D HSF (yah its a cheepie)
2 GB (2x1GB) A Data 4-4-4-12 PC2-800
2x 320GB WD Caviar AAKS SE16
MSI 8800GTX OC (610/1000)

I'm running an E6420 and Vista x64 just like you, but TAT, CoreTemp, SpeedFan, and RMClock all work correctly... but I guess I've been lucky in this regard.

In any case, I have the same problem with the fan speeds and voltages in SpeedFan as you, but SpeedFan's temps are correct. They match up with all the other temp monitor programs I have (SiSoft Sandra, Everest, CoreTemp, RMClock).

Well, if they are correct then I'm a little worried about those temps. I guess I better invest in some better proc cooling.

1) What cooler do you have?
2) What voltage do you see? (in CPU-Z terms)

(as an afterthought, I see your Vcore1 as reported in SpeedFan is .10 lower than mine... if so, you could invest in a $30 cooler or something, it *should* improve your temps by quite a bit).

My E6420 at 3.2ghz (CPU-Z idle voltage 1.392, load voltage 1.360) hit a high of 55C on a Scythe Mine and a high of 50C for both cores with a lapped TT Big Typhoon and an Antec TriCool fan at medium.

By the way, as an FYI, the SpeedFan temps are:
Temp1: Motherboard Temp (probably northbridge)
Temp2: CPU temp (not core temps)
Temp3: borked?
HD1: HDD, of course
and the two core temps.

EasyTune 5 doesn't give core temps. Plus, it says my CPU is at 14ºC right now, which is impossible.
