Theres some program that all tech-youtubers use to look up cpu-usage temperature and thermal throttling at the same time with graphs, but i cant find the name of it anywhere. does someone know what its called?

100% is AIDA64 if you're talking about the program that graphs thermal throttling during a stress test. HWMonitor and CPU-Z are 2 other good alternatives, along with Open Hardware Monitor.

Are you referring to AIDA 64?

That is Aida64 for sure.

Hardware Monitor is also a programs frequently used too, to see more detailed CPU temperatures.

Yeah for sure. Also used to stress test the CPU. The problem is that it's paid and has a trial period.
