Real Temp is a temperature monitoring program designed for all Intel single Core, Dual Core and Quad Core processors. Each core on these processors has a digital thermal sensor (DTS) that reports temperature data relative to TjMax which is the safe maximum operating core temperature for the CPU. As your CPU heats up, your Distance to TjMax will decrease. If it reaches zero your processor will start to throttle or slow down so maximizing your distance away from TjMax will help your computer run at full speed and more reliably too.
- Support for Sandy Bridge CPUs
- VID based power consumption estimates for the newer CPUs
- Improved log file formatting
- Added a single system tray icon that reports the maximum core temperature
- RealTemp GT updated for the 6 core Sandy Bridge E CPUs
- I7 Turbo GT 1.30 multiplier monitoring tool

I am amazed at some of the low scores given this interesting and useful application. Evidently, those giving the low scores didn't read the first sentence in the description "Real Temp is a temperature monitoring program designed for all Intel single Core, Dual Core and Quad Core processors".
It is for INTEL processors. It is not for AMD and should not be graded down for that. No, its not for the older Pentium processors, either. But the truth is, if it won't work on your machine but it will work on others, why should it be downgraded? Would you downgrade an Apple application if it will not work on your Wiindows machine?
Additionally, the fact that it does not install on your machine, on any machine, means that it cannot do harm. Simply having the downloaded directory on your machine does not hurt much, it just takes up a small amount of space on your hard drive or flash drive or wherever you've placed it. Can't use it or don't want it anymore? Delete it, but don't downgrade it when it can help other people.

Says Core, meaning Intel's new 'Core' series cpu. Their home page clearly states "Pentium 4 processors are not supported".

I agree with Old Geek, two different machines, no go on either, it doesn't support them, even though they are Intel 'single core' processors.
Ones a 3.4ghzHT, others a 2.8ghzHT........maybe its the hyper-threading...LOL.
Nevertheless they're ad claim is untrue..........

This is like the only program that does not support AMD. Get a Phenom II 1090T you nub and stop wasting money on over priced Intel crap!
