    Was wondering what you all use to monitor cpu / gpu temps on a daily basis. I use CoreTemp on my desktop, but it doesn't monitor GPU and it doesn't appear to work with the i7 processor.

    Let me know

    Coretemp works with my desktop I7. And it works with my older Core 2 notebook. Be sure you have the latest version and you keep it running in the background. Not sure what else may be going wrong for you.

    I use this widget for GPU.
