I run a editing machine where I render projects for 30 min - 5 hours straight at 100% cpu (3950x) and using all of my available ram (64gb),

I have a Asus motherboard (If that matters for the question below).

Question:

 

Is there any nice software that can monitor the temps I am getting with a good GUI that is simple like:

 

CPU temp : X

 

Thanks and sorry for the silly question

Silly me, Thanks for the post!

I just saw "CAM", It has quite a nice GUI, 

Is that application reliable? (Accurate)

never used it :(

but looks alright. what company has made this? is this the NZXT CAM thing?

 

also, what motherboard are you running right now? if you have msi, you can use dragon center and you can get a nifty little gui.

here is a screen shot:

but it is quite different from the cam one.

I use a Asus motherboard,

 

Yes NZXT CAM.

It does however seem to say lower cpu usage than Windows task manager, Or is Windows reporting wrong?

CAM has had issues in past where it uses more resources than needed. But then again, I don't think there's anything else that would be nice and easy from the start. Most of them rely on user to set it up first.

You could try Rainmeter with either AIDA64 + Rainformer or HWInfo + Rainformer (free) I have a post here on it..  You could just use it out of the box as it comes and turn on and off the displays (skins) you want to see. Very low overhead.
