Hi, I own a chaintech 9BIA motheboard and I'd like to find a program that monitors cpu temperature.I used Motherboard monitor 5 (last update) but it shows correctly only the case temp.I used configuration wizard too but it looks like it doesn't include my mboard.Is there any alternative and reliable software? (freeware if possible) ;)

i also use actual hardware moitoring for temperatures with my coolermaster aerogate 3. ( http://www.coolermaster.com/index.php?LT=english&Language_s=2&url_place=product&p_serial=ALD-V03&other_title=0 ). It has 4 diode sensors that you can stick on components of your case like your cpu, gpu, north bridge, hard drives, etc. It just reads the temperatures out on the front display of the case in cycles.

Everest Home Edition is another option, it will give you temps for your motherboard, CPU, hard drive, and monitor.

Thanks for the help.Just one more thing ,I changed my cpu fan with one that is much more quiet but slower also.So when working at 100% the temp reaches 50 degrees C.It's P4 1700 overclocked at 1867MHz.Will this temp harm it eventually or it is ok to work about 10 deg up than before?It happens only at 100%....
