Gerald. I use Core Temp. In the interest of comparison--I'd like to know if I'm running hot or not. What is the average temperature of your cores? Please convey if you're running dual or quadCore.

It's probably also a good idea to monitor your PC's internal temperature with an accessible free program like Core Temp or Speed Fan, which displays the CPU temperature in the System Tray. You can't always tell when your PC is running dangerously hot just by the sound of its fan.
