I was wondering if anyone know where I can find a free, simple GPU/CPU temperature monitor program? I don't need anything that reads out 2 pages of graph information, just the current temps so that I can monitor it while playing a game. Thanks.

SpeedFan works awesome.Windows
9x, ME, NT, 2000, 2003, XP, Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8 It's small (2mb),uses hardly any resources and it's very accurate.And it works with the newer 8 core AMD cpu and All nvidia and ATI video cards,unlike most of the others.

Speccy shows you very detailed information about your hardware including motherboard, CPU and GPU temperatures.

I love using Core Temp (RC5) and works like a charm.

Start up with Windows(optional) and running on my second screen.

 

You can download it here: http://www.alcpu.com/CoreTemp/php/download.php?id=3

 

There is also a Windows Gadget version that you can use. Info here: http://www.alcpu.com/CoreTemp/addons.html

 

For my GPU, I use GPU-Z : http://www.techpowerup.com/gpuz/

(or just the videocard software.)

There are lots of free programs for this purpose, many of which have already been mentioned. For CPU I use real temp, and for the GPU I usually just use MSI Afterburner as i'm overclocking the GPU anyway. Any of the programs mentioned previously are good though.
