Core Temp is one of the easiest programs to find real-time in formation about your processor. This will let you know the processor your computer is using, the socket, frequency of each core, multiplier, load and temperature. You can also know the lithography it was designed for and the consumption it always has.

One of the features that makes Core Temp a great program is that it shows the temperature of all processor cores on the taskbar by default. In the program settings you can decide which temperatures to display there, including an option to display the highest temperature recorded by one of the cores, in order to know the highest temperature the chip is reaching. You can also view at-a-glance data such as processor frequency, load, RAM usage, and consumption.

The program is compatible with Intel and AMD processors and correctly records data for each core. You can also change the update frequency of each data in milliseconds. Finally, you can also enable alerts if a certain temperature is exceeded.

So if you want to know how your processor is doing in real time, we recommend downloading Core Temp.
