Now we need some gamers to see if this feature works in modern games. It was OK in 3DMark06 and I did a few laps in Ford Street Racing last night but I'm too old for playing fast moving shoot 'em in the head kind of games!

Uncleweb:
Game mod is not working very well in UT3 + Vista64 + 8800GT NVidia (ForceWare Version 175.63)
It keeps blinking during game.
edit: CRISYS, I can only see the temps (gamemod) if played in windowed mode of the game. IN Full screen you can not see temps.
I will test some more games and post here.
Great job, thanks!

There's no way around the flickering as far as I know so far. The temps have to be updated at the same rate as the game is updating the screen but that is constantly changing and I haven't found any way to exactly sync to the game frame rate.
Depending on your frame rates, in some games it works well enough that it's easy to see your temps while playing while in other games or at different times during some games, you might not be able to see anything. If it provides anyone with some new information that they didn't know before then be happy. It's not designed to be something that you would run 24/7.
I wish there was a more game friendly way to do this and the temp display was rock solid but that's likely not going to happen. Thanks for doing some testing. Maybe some game developer will see this and decide that including a feature like on screen temps would be a great option.
MrHydes: Come on. You have to give me a little more information than that. I don't know anything about your computer or whether you live at the North Pole or on the equator. Have you read anything about RealTemp yet like the documentation page? Are there any specific concerns you have? I enjoy helping users with specific problems and concerns but I'm not psychic.
What sort of cooling, how much core voltage, what about load temps while running Prime95 small FFTs on all cores.
I hate to be honest but I don't know what I did that effected the Test Sensor feature. I'm kind of a random programmer and quickly forget what I changed yesterday or even last hour. Thanks loonym for continuing to be one of my biggest fans!![]()
