Core Temp 0.99 Beta beta
Publisher's Description:
Core Temp is a compact, no fuss, small footprint program to monitor CPU temperature. The uniqueness of it is that it shows the temperature of each individual core in a each processor in your system. You can see in real time how the CPU temperature varies when you load your CPU.

Good program all-around. Never had any issues.
Those complaining about a temp difference between SpeedFan should do some research - SpeedFan generally requires a 15C offset because of the sensors it utilizes to measure temps.

best stand alone Core and Core2 temp monitor available. simple GUI, easy to use, log file output support, G15 keyboard LCD support.
new version mainly adds better Intel 45nm support.

Seems to work great and is accurate for my X2 4800+ (S939).
Perfect for making sure your cooling solution is adequate or even tweaking it further to minimize noise/cooling ratio especially with large after-market heatsinks.
TDP:
If you spend a lot of time designing your computer you should note the maximum heat used by the CPU and the minimum (idle). For example, my X2 4800+ uses a max of 85Watts but in idle uses only about 7.8 Watts (so 50% may be around 50Watts).
For basic websurfing more efficient CPU's might use an average of 10 Watts which is great for internal heat and noise, however an NVidia 8800GT graphics card uses about 42 Watts in IDLE (Some SLI=4x100Watts=400Watts). This is one reason many love the ATI HD3870 which is slightly less powerful for most games but idles at about 18Watts. Most noticeably this reduces the Power Supply Unit's fan but probably also the graphics card.
*If you are using this tool, it's worth finding the Idle/Minimum, Maximum power and other characteristics to optimize your system. Look into HybridPower by NVidia which has products coming soon. It can turn OFF the power to the addon Graphics cards (even 4xSLI) and use an efficient onboard solution. I'd wait for ATI's solution then compare.
Sorry for the long post but I think some people will find it useful (the type that would use this tool).

For those that rate it down because it doesn't support older P4 Intel Processors, well it is called: CORETEMP not P4TEMP. Geez.... can't get anymore self explanatory than that. No need to rate it down for something you could have easily figured out by visiting their website or simply reading the name of the program. Also for those that are reading relative low temps in the teens, be sure you dont have CoreTemp set to show the difference between current temp and tjmax.

Speedfan says my core temp. is 23C but this program 39C.
