Real Temp - New temp program for Intel Core processors

[rge]

i dont trust realtemp to be honest, considering its reporting completly different tests to everything else

So apparently you trust Everest....

Pic below is a quote from Fiery, developer of Everest, on lavalys forum describing how he feels about the accuracy of measuring core temperature with his program and others.

So you trust a program's guess at accuracy of core temp more than the author? Fiery was simply being honest, as intel does not document tjmax for desktops, thus Everest and coretemp guess at tjmax by using 45nm mobile cpus tjmax's of 105, hoping it is close, even though intel has said "no" to doing so.

Realtemp is the only program that has performed measurements, using intel docs to do so as accurately as possible, to make an accurate estimate of tjmax, and thus core temperature.

We all welcome intelligent arguments either for or against any program or temperature, as that leads to fruitful discussion, but blindly following others, who admit to being blind themselves, makes no sense.
