Core Temp is simpler and easier to use than Speed Fan, which is really
designed for hard-core techies. Once installed, Core Temp will monitor
the CPU temperature in real time and display it in the System Tray. I
think it may also issue some kind of warning if the CPU temperature
approaches a dangerously high level. As long as your CPU temperature is
well under this threshhold, there should not be any problem with
overheating. Most computer manufacturers and chip makers list the maximum
safe operating temperature for their CPU's in their product specs.

Gerald,
I have been following this thread a little bit, but between core temp and
speed fan is one better than the other or are they equal when it comes to
a comparison?

Are these programs free? I am using my laptop quite a bit and once it
starts getting hot, everything goes sluggish. the room temperature is
fine. If these programs are free, how do I go about installing and
using them? Wayne Scott

With some compatible processors, Speed Fan can adjust the fan speed
when the internal temperature gets too high.

Can either of these programs throttle the CPU if the temperature gets
too high?

There is just so much stuff in the world that, to me, is devoid of
any real substance, value, and content that I just try to make sure
that I am working on things that matter.

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.

Daily Tip:
Keep It Cool
Computers generate quite a bit of internal heat, especially if they
are running video or audio applications or multiple programs
simultaneously. Excess heat over prolonged periods of time can
damage components and connections, not to mention affect
performance. All computers are equipped with fans that dissipate
the heat, but sometimes they can't keep up, especially if the vents
are blocked or occluded by dirt and dust. In addition to keeping
the vents clear, you can keep your computer cool and healthy by
keeping the room temperature lower and making sure air can
circulate around your computer.
