Readme. Nothing is strange in RealTemp. ;)
Yea, I thought it was funny too, until I discovered it was meant to be like that :)
Just wondering if there is any chance for a feature/program that will monitor/display temps of more than one PC over a network?
guys, and what about the mobos with only ONE GTL setting like the P5K? they can set only auto, 0.63, 0.61, 0.59 etc.
The Distance to TJMax box always displays the raw data coming from the on chip digital thermal sensors. Intel's point of view is that once you go beyond TJMax that this data is meaningless but if you change the interpretation of it, I think it's still very meaningful. One user sent me some screen shots of his Q6600 at 122C trying to determine the thermal shut down temperature. Intel only documents the mobile chips which have a shut down temperature of 125C. The temperature data coming from these sensors when you are beyond TJMax is probably more accurate than at idle.Quote:

ptelles: You still have lots of temperature head room so don't be afraid to push that chip a little harder. :up:
I think XS bans users if they find out that your CPU isn't running 24/7 on the ragged edge of self destruction. :rofl:
That sounds like a useful app but I have no idea where to start.Quote:

unclewebb, any chance you looked over my numbers yet? ;)
I was hoping all you guys on the weekend went away so I'd have some time to work on RealTemp today. :DQuote:

If you don't have a thermal paste issue, then these numbers will get your 4 cores to line up a lot better and your idle temperatures should be a similar amount above room temperature as what rge found during his testing.
Run Prime95 Small FFTs for 30 seconds or so on and then 30 seconds off for a handful of times and check out how the 4 cores track each other. They should be similar with these settings and probably more accurate in the temperature range you run at than what these sensors provide out of the box. Perfect temperatures was my original goal but I've learned to settle for reasonably accurate. :)
Thanks mate :)
Cheers Unc, Ill wear the gold star with pride hehe - excuse the delay i had a software problem and the comp wouldnt boot... some time with the original vista disc seems to have cured it eeek.... but anyway haha.
Opened up the case and ran the low mhz test again...Vcore down to 1.100 hope this imageshack stuff works lol..

Just to clarify some of my reading... VID means the advised voltage from intel for that chip to run stable at stock speeds?
My chip also has VID of 1.3250 ... DOH... it took about 1.343 or the next notch up to get it stable at 3ghz...
Ive noticed i can get a bit more stability by raising the MCH voltage - What does the MCH voltage actually add voltage too? ie will it be the CPU still getting the voltage somewhere or is it something on the motherboard?...
Yeah Im the same with regards to 24-7 noise... and altho the comp isnt that noisy id rather have it under its max with in reason and 3Ghz seemed reasnoble, but i was hoping to do it at stock volts... but maybe i need to play more.
Erm ill have to have a play with the overclock as ive been runing stock for a few days now... will have a play and get back to you... Overall anything in the pics suggest any major issue?
Appreciate you taking a look :)
Count me in as another one with a headache! I've read this entire thread over the past week ... thank you so much unclewebb for all your efforts. I've learned a lot, and now am a little less confused about temps. Haven't seen too many i7 examples ... here's my Cool Down test with an air-cooled i7 920 (ASUS P6T Deluxe ... all stock settings). It seems okay, but just wanting to doublecheck:

Thanks again for all the helpful info!!!
Logfile or CSV's not being created in 2.84
Is this a known issue?
Hi
Is there any chance of putting a Logitech G15 plugin in the Real temp app so it shows on the Logitech LCD
Thanks
Day
I thought it worked.Quote:

RealTemp used to cache the log file for a default interval of 5 minutes. The default is down to 60 seconds now. I'm old school and not a big fan of thrashing people's hard drives every second when some new data becomes available. If you can't afford to miss out on any data then open up the RealTemp.ini file and use:
HDWrite=1
and then every second the data should be written to the log file. You can set that value to however many seconds you like. I can't remember what version I added that feature to RealTemp but my friend Google says it was version 2.69.8
http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...postcount=1851
Version 2.90 produced a nice Excel .CSV file for me about 2 minutes ago so I know if there was a bug, it seems to be gone now.
I just finished adding an interesting new feature tonight. Unfortunately the fileden site is down at the moment so I can't share it. Maybe tomorrow.
Hint: Users with Nvidia cards might like the new feature. :)
shazza: Thanks for posting that. The Core i7 sensors are NOT full of problems like the 45nm Core 2 sensors. Yours look pretty normal. After a quick glance the slopes of all 4 sensors look very similar. I think the real difference from core to core is slight differences in TJMax which Intel says is part of the manufacturing process.
day187: I finally bought a G15 a few months ago but it's sitting on the things to do pile. I hope to get a plug-in done for that or a RivaTuner plug-in done sometime in the not too distant future.
fileden site is OK,just checkQuote:

Will grab latest Beta now
*Pre-post edit*
CSV is working, Log is not. Or will it just create one or the other? Just trying to collect some quick data for my own thoughts about blocks before I switch them here shortly
I just downloaded this soft, but that's difference with everest temps. here's scr
Which 1 shuold I believe?

Take latest beta and you'll match Everest readings.
It's about TJMax, 95 (RT 2.70) vs. 100 (Everest).
burebista
Thanks bro :)
uncle, i played around with rivatuner plugins. used igor's c2d plugin as base and removed tjmax detection as he used the old msr method to get tjmax which we all know is not the best way to do. modified it to be able to change tjmax via a cfg file to be able to configure the plugin for different processors.Quote:

anyway, i used visual studio 2008 standard edition. having visual studio set up and an example at hand a plugin can be done within minutes! pm me for more info.
fgw I give you a lot of virtual beers/whatever you drink if you help uncle to make that RivaTuner plugin. :D
It's an option. You can create your log file as a text file OR as a CSV file so it's easier to import into Excel.Quote:

Oh man, I dunno if I should go into a church and pray or into a bar and drink. :DQuote:

I thought I was done with the RC versions but then I found a minor bug or two and while I was fixing, I decided now was a good time to add on another feature or two.
I've added GPU Temperature monitoring to RealTemp but only if you're using an Nvidia card.
If you want to know everything there is to know about your graphics card then GPU-Z or RivaTuner would be my first choice.
If you just need a quick look at your GPU temperature, then RealTemp might be good enough.

I didn't want to re-design the GUI for this feature so CPUID info will change to GPU info a few seconds after start up.
If you hover the mouse just below this new information for 5 seconds, you should see something like this pop-up:
http://img339.imageshack.us/img339/1...ureportiv0.png
Nothing too fancy. If you have an Nvidia card and don't want any GPU temperature information then use this in the INI file:
NoGPU=1
RealTemp is designed so it will report the highest GPU temperature when using SLI. If you have 2 or 3 cards, hopefully it will find and report the highest GPU temp. If you use SLI, post a screen shot of RealTemp along with another monitoring program to show that this is working properly.
The second alarm in RealTemp has been changed so that now you can monitor and shutdown your computer independently based on either your CPU temperature or your GPU temperature. rge thought that would be a good idea since he's lost one graphics card too many due to a water cooling failure.
The log file should contain an extra column now with GPU temperature info. It will be the column on the far right.
There is also an extra system tray icon now for GPU temperatures and that should show Min/Max/Avg like the other tray icons.
There was a fix or two for Atom processors and a fix for Core i7 when two cores are disabled in the bios. Probably not too many people who would want to do that but RealTemp should report the correct number of cores now when this happens and hyper threading is enabled. I also added a feature so the Clock Modulation setting will be saved when RealTemp exits and restored when the program starts. A laptop owner told me he needed this to protect his important parts. :rofl: When RealTemp is not running, Clock Modulation is NOT enabled.
OK, I think 2.90 is finally finished. Unless I hear about some more bugs. :)
gpu monitoring support is welcomed, since when gaming the cpu and gpu temps would be the only ones most people would look at.
would be great if realtemp also monitored the cpu fan speed. :)
