June 4, 20224 yr Hi all, So I just completed my first ever pc build and it went flawlessly, surprised as how easy it was and I’m quite proud of it, I don’t think I’ll ever buy a pre-built again now that I’ve built my pc once. There were moments where I had to google some things but on the overall it’s a simple process, Anyways, now with the new build I want to monitor temperatures for the next little bit to get some comfort in knowing it’s operating in a decent range, curious as to what is out there to monitor temps? Any recommendations?

June 4, 20224 yr Congrats on the build!!👍 Yeah, once you've built your own it's hard to go back to a pre-built. HWiNFO works great for me. Lot's of information about your system, and all of it configurable. I like the portable version (of anything I use). I also have Core Temp configured to monitor full time (in the Task Bar) the temp and speed of my CPU.

June 4, 20224 yr I do not see a cooler in your system specs. I use iCue from Corsair, but it works with the system and my Corsair H100i liquid cooler.

June 4, 20224 yr SIV64 - System Information Viewer is another that offer robust monitoring capability: http://rh-software.com/ I use it for fan and pump control with the Corsair AIO cooler in my system, to monitor CPU, GPU, chipset and memory temps - works great, but not without a bit of a learning curve. I just couldn't get comfortable with Corsair's software, which seemed a bit intrusive and a little resource heavy. i7-6700k • Gigabyte GA-Z170X-UD5 • 32GB DDR4 2666 • EVGA FTW ULTRA RTX3080 12GB

Thank you, my specs below is my old system, I haven’t updated the specs in my sig yet… although I didn’t go liquid cooled in the new build Edited June 5, 20224 yr by flyinpilot212121 Intel I7 12700KF / 32 GB Ram-3600mhz / Windows 11 - 64 bit / NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060TI / 32" Acer Monitor, Honeycomb alpha/bravo, CH rudder pedals, Tobii 5, Buttkicker, Logitech radio panel.
June 5, 20224 yr Author Thank you all for your great recommendations, I’m trying hwmonitor, not sure on the accuracy but so far looking like temps are good! Perhaps a successful build 😂 Intel I7 12700KF / 32 GB Ram-3600mhz / Windows 11 - 64 bit / NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060TI / 32" Acer Monitor, Honeycomb alpha/bravo, CH rudder pedals, Tobii 5, Buttkicker, Logitech radio panel.

Perhaps a successful build 😂 Yeah, its as accurate as you'll get with software. True accuracy requires dedicated voltage read points on the board and a multimeter. You don't need anything fancy, the standard software will do.
