Vista x64 and CPU temp

[GameTime00]

Anyone on here OC with Vista 64bt and use something other than speedfan or coretemp? Im trying to set up OCing on this new comp, but i cannot install either of those programs because... well i guess they aint friends with vista 64.

But ya, other options?

I use SiSandra in Vista 64 without any issues.

I'm using Everest. Love having all that information on my sidebar. Speeds, voltages, fan speeds, temps, etc.

Both the gigabyte and asus motherboard monitor apps work fine in vista.

I use Everest Ultimate.

SpeedFan installed just fine for me (some of the sensors require that you run as Admin, but not the core0, core1, etc sensors)...
CoreTemp does require a third-party fix though, I think because it loads unsigned drivers.

Speedfan gives garbage results though depending on what motherboard you have.

I dont trust it.

SpeedFan should work under Vista64 just fine (I'm using it right now). However you need something else to calibrate it against, it's often (but not always) off by 15c.

This worked wonders for me. No need to offset anything. And no need to delete vista updates or do any f8 startup tricks.

I still can't figure out how to get ATI Tool working though.
