Version 1.18.1 of CoreTemp has been released. This small, free program can identify and monitor the computer’s processor. For example, Core Temp shows the temperature and operating pressure of the individual cores. On this page a list of all supported processors can be found. The collected information is written into a log, so that it can later be put in a graph, for example in Excel. It is also possible to control the processor via an Android or Windows Phone app keep an eye on. The changelog since version 1.16 can be found below.
