Real Temp - New temp program for Intel Core processors

[unclewebb]

Demo: I only wrote RealTemp because I saw this great void of accurate temperature information for Core processors. When 45nm arrived and my reported temps were being reported WAY too high by CoreTemp, Everest, HW Monitor, etc, I finally decided if you want something done right you've got to do it yourself.

CPU-Z has been at it for a long time and is the king of CPU info. It's also doing everything right. I'll stick to trying to become users first choice when needing accurate temperature information for their Intel Core processors.

clokker: I was going to mention that the system clock uses an anti-aliased font so it looks a little smoother than other stuff in the tray area. I need to spend more time playing around with the million and one options when creating a font to see if I can get the same effect.

msgclb: What's your thoughts on having all of the core temperatures appear above each core when you mouse over them? The method I used in previous versions only had the temperature information over the first Tray Icon and then the rest were labelled, Core 1, Core 2, Core 3. I did this so when I was getting ready to choose a tray icon menu, I didn't have a bunch of information popping up and getting in the way. I might make the previous way an option to keep me happy.
