Temperature of computer

[kenklug]

Where do I go to find the temperature of my computer? I know there is a place that shows that number. Where is it?

There is not just one temp of your computer there are many. The main ones to keep track of are CPU and GPU.

when you boot if you go into the mb bios all or most have a mb health screen shows power and temp of your system. there are also programs that read the mb sensor and give you outputs like open hardware monitor. for gpu programs like msi afterburner does.

Its highly recommended that you get youcheck average sensor temperatures under completely normal every day activities to get a real picture of real world events, its also a very good idea to check temperatures when your running at every thing going full blast, Just to check for stability and just where your laptop stands in the laptop CPU list.

edit part:
bit tired, writing with one eye open now =)
not the laptop CPU list, but where your laptop stands in heat generation compared to other computers.

To find the temperature of my computer Core Temp 1.0 R3 was the free software that was suggested, and works great, but is no long in the answer above. Don't know where it went.
