Download MSI afterburner and HWINFO64 (HWINFO32 for 32 bit operating system).

Copy paste from your other thread. Duno which one we want to be using. ><

This is probably pretty easy through a rainmeter skin. Not sure on a dedicated program/application to handle it. But Rainmeter would be an easy place to start.

Looks easy enough. You just have to run something in the background that will measure CPU temps and then use Rainmeter to display the info from that program.

Im working on it. Gimme about 30 minutes to an hour. Ill see what I can come up with.



Note: Rainmeter, Core Temp and .ini download links are all direct download


Quad Core CPU Temp Display: Download Link
Octo Core CPU Temp Display: Download Link

 

Alrighty, so you need to download Rainmeter and Core Temp. Be aware Core Temp has a few addon programs which you can skip while installing.

Now you will need to download the attached .ini file ive made. It will display core temps for cores 1 through to 4. I will edit the file and upload another .ini for octocore CPUS in a minute. You need to put this .ini file in the Rainmeter Skins folder which is in My Documents by default.

Now inside Rainmeter, you just need to load the CPUTemps.ini. It will now display the CPU temps up in the left hand corner of your screen. You will probably need to right click the box and hit Settings, Position, Stay Topmost.Thats going to have it above every other window. Theres also a transperancy option in the settings, Might be helpful.


I just tested it and ran into a problem. It wont stay ontop of EuroTruck Simulator. Might have to change something in the game. Ive hit a dead end, cant figure out how to get Rainmeter to display over games. They seem to over ride the topmost window option and kick Rainmeter behind it.

>< Maybe someone else can pick up where I got to.

You're welcome.

I think the soultion will be to run your game in windowed/borderless mode. Then it should work. I only tried it on KSP and ETS2 and I couldnt find any options to do windowed/borderless...But I wasnt really looking that hard.
