Looks good, I can't log in to the actual application though. The login works on the website.

it just accesses your mobo's temp sensors. So your mobo is at fault, not the software. it detects mine fine... I just can't log in.

Nope it is the software.. HWINFO64, AIDA64 and Gigabyte easytune all pick it up correctly..

Same, I've been having very inaccurate temp reads on every piece of hardware it detecs (about ±20ºC).

I get the same error on both of my rigs and I know thats not the temps. I will need to talk to the app team and figure out what is going on.

I'm just going to call this Beta, but so far, I'm liking it. 

I'm a bit of an NZXT fanboy when it comes to cases (the original Phantom is the reason for that) and I like the style of this app. It's simplistic. Muy bueno.

It's not a beta at all. We have had a lot of beta testing before CAM was released.

I liked it, it looks very nice and all but it gives me error messages like my hard drives are 98c when obviously they aren't they just have no temp sensors on. Also it popped up a warning because my GPU was under load... really.
I found that the data was a bit hit and miss though and didn't like that the usage resources for the CAM software itself was using like 10-20% of my CPU.

The data needs to be more concise and in one area that is plain to see rather than having to click through all the menus to see what you want to see. For these reasons I uninstalled it within 5 minutes, and I will be sticking with CPUID-HWMonitor.

It definitely has potential, maybe you can lure me back. I do love me some NZXT.

I downloaded the program and it looks really nice, but it doesn't show my CPU temperature. It just stays at 0C...

New to Star Citizen? Look no further!

This may the best pc monitoring software I have ever seen...It's so clean. If I could change the colors from blue to something like red, and resize it, I would leave it on my desktop as a showpiece.

For those who are using CAM, check your storage activity. When I used the NZXT Kraken controller software, my SSD was always logging something (SSD usage ~1% all the time, doing something with $log folders). I checked the settings and I had disable the logs for this software. Once I closed the Kraken controller, the SSD usage was back to 0%...
