What temp monitoring program do you use?

Curious as to what you are all using and whats out there that is worthy of trying? I dont care much for Motherboard Monitor and the Gigabyte Utility is annoying.

I find Speedfan more convenient than Motherboard Monitor 5, although that has more features.

MBM is the best in IMO ,though it does have a lot of settings to fine tune for your own taste
I can also read the GPU temp on my Asus GTS2 with MBM

Asus probe sucks cos you can't show the temps in the sys tray!

....at least as far as I could make out

I use speedfan as well as MBM.....I have multiple programs at my disposal to check and verify they are the same....

Thanks for the tips. I now have MBM set up and will run it I guess. Its funny because on my last Asus board I had cpu temps of about 43*C and now with this Gigabyte board and with the exact same hardware my cpu temps are about 32-33*C ! I get these same cpu temps with MBM, the Gigabyte utility and in bios as well. Why do you figure the low temps with this Gigabyte board, is Gigabyte sensors known for giving out low readings??

maybe asus was reading on die, while gigabyte is still reading in socket

Also different mbrds even if they use the same method of measuring cpu temps will show different temps due to how the bios is calibrated (as well as hardware differences)
