Real Temp - New temp program for Intel Core processors

[unclewebb]

Any hopes of getting this working also on Vista x64?

That is looking very promising now. I started switching over to a more modern driver last night so turning out a x64 edition looks simple now. Unfortunately a bad cold has slowed my a-s-s down today. x64 beta by bedtime today I hope.

KTE: I think loading a processor without a heatsink on it can give unpredictable results. That's why I gently took my cpus up to TjMax at the lowest possible voltage and MHz. I'm not sure but I have a feeling that the rate of temperature change might also effect processor shut down but I haven't found any Intel docs to back that up. It would be interesting if you could try my tests with an IR thermometer in one hand and a fire extinguisher in the other!

Darth Vader: As long as the DTS sensor in your processor are moving freely then sub zero readings shouldn't be a problem with Real Temp. I need to get outside for some real world testing of that but someone else posted a sub zero screen shot of my program earlier in this thread. When you run my Test Sensor feature what kind of numbers are reported? Are all 4 of your sensors moving freely and equally? They should.
