What software prog do I need to monitor my cpu temp etc. I'm a idiot, I admit. I was wondering if there is software that'll let me check it without going into BIOS. Thanks!

Oooh, be sure to install the live bios and winflash too...you can update your bios within windows with that.

hehe I'd be paranoid about updating a BIOS while in windows. That seems to be only problem with that board people are having if you search through this week's threads.

I checked out the MSi, the Mobo Monitor 5, and lastly the Sandra, of the three, I'm using Sandra right now. Offers a lot more information... go to download.com and search for Sandra.

MBM 5 and PC Alert III (which is on the MSi cd) posts similar temps, Sandra posts a little higher. Since some people have said that the MBM5 and PC Alert III and Bios posts a little low on the MSi boards, I guess that would make Sandra closer to the real temp right?
