aberracus Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 I really tried hard to find a working program to check my mobo temp under osx, and i give up, obviously our sensors arent the same the Imacs or Mac Pros use, so... until yesterday, i was reading a post http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?sho...erature+monitor and Sniks said as it was the most common thing in the universe were to get the Holly grial of the overclokers, a Universal program to check our HAckintoshes temperatures under OSX. Here is the Link http://www.bresink.de/osx/TemperatureMonitor.html and the Widget http://www.bresink.de/osx/TemperatureMonitorWE.html When the progrm runs first time recognizes the system as an OSX86 "Extended" and installs extra sensors!!! I would like to see an Insanely Mac Gratitude letter for Marcel Bresink the Author http://www.bresink.de Cheers Aberracus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bofors Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 CPU temperature monitoring certainly has been an important tool (critical for overclocking) missing from the OSx86 toolbox, so I very happy to hear this news. Unfortunately, TemperatureMonitor does not seem to work on my Pentium D 920, Intel D945GNTLKR rig (at least not for reading anything but disk temperatures). I suppose this could be because I am still running 10.4.5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martin1976 Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Same here... and I'm running 10.4.7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aberracus Posted September 19, 2006 Author Share Posted September 19, 2006 Damn, sorry guys, it works prfectly with my mobo, maybe my cpu temp sensor is the same with macs? i cant sey, Please we need more testers, install it and post your results here, i would love to see those Gigabyte 965's and the 975's, maybe we are lucky there.

GBK.Xscape Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 I installed and it found my CPU Core temperature but i dont think its reading right because it says its at 32 degrees fahrenheit which is freezing so i dont think its working. its like 70 degress in my room.

aberracus Posted September 19, 2006 Author Share Posted September 19, 2006 are u sure it says Farenheit? the default is Celssiuss. mine is saying 35 C for core 1 and 34 for Core 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infamous Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 Wrong on ASROCK Conroe 945G DVI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyGoR Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 Working here to (almost same setup as Infamous) but my CPU readings are a bit high I believe.. It says 51 and 54 degrees Celcius while the system is idle, ~1% CPU usage.. The room temperature isn't that high either, about 22C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
me@home Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 installed both... well it shows only temp. of my 2 SATA HD's and the 2 IDE HD's which might be right coz in XP I have quite the same temp. is there a trick to get cpu temp working or no chance with my Asus mobo ?

asapreta Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 On my mobo (P5WD2 Premium) only show the SATA temps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikemad Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 I installed it too, but it shows only the temp of my 3 harddisks. P5LD2-VM + Pentium D 930 lg Mikemad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aberracus Posted September 23, 2006 Author Share Posted September 23, 2006 Im starting to believe it only works with apple supported CPUs like Core Duos, Core duos 2 and probably the xeons 2.... we need more test.. @ GYGOR Do you mean a little lower? Infamous temps are higher than yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nkm82 Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 It works for me. High temp , problably because not having QE and CI... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bofors Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 Wrong on ASROCK Conroe 945G DVI It works for me. High temp , There have been numerous reports of the Conroe temperature sensor erroneously reporting tempertatures to be much higher than they actually are, like by ~10o C. So these results may be "correct" as far as Temperature Monitor is concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

macmaniac Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Im starting to believe it only works with apple supported CPUs like Core Duos, Core duos 2 and probably the xeons 2.... we need more test.. I agree. On my highly hackintosh-compatible Intel D945GTPLKR mobo w/PentiumD945 (3.4GHz) CPU running 10.4.7 with all hackupdates, I only get hard disk temperatures.

aberracus Posted September 27, 2006 Author Share Posted September 27, 2006 Thats just because your mobo is compatible, but not your cpu, apple dont have any pentium d processors, i think this is onkly compatible with Core Duos and Core Duos 2 BTW i think te temperature measuring is correct ihave a sunbeam lcd panel telling me the same as my temperarutre monitor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

equilibriumuk Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 yay works fine here on my new system just tell it to install the x86 driver and it detects the two cpu core temps aswell as the SMART HDD. I just built my new machine and have it overclocked, so the ability to see the temps is obviously welcome It seems to work but it's about 20degrees celcius higher than the BIOS and Speedfan value, be cool if you could do -20 on the display options like you can on gkrellm on linux Mobo: P5W DH CPU: Core2Duo e6400 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaemonES Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 This utility works correct only if your MoBo has sensors supported by apple, i.e. LM80, LM85 and so on. Anyway I think I can write simple utility for ASRock i945 users (all mobos use Winbond W83627EHF sensor). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aberracus Posted October 5, 2006 Author Share Posted October 5, 2006 That would be great man!! Apparently until now only ASUS P5W DH anf Gigabyte ga-945 series works perfectly with this. im goan build a new mac for my bro, and plan using Asrock mb so he cna upgrade to core duo in the future, (its starting with a 805) so i would love to see one asrock monitoring temp application Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bennals Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 Just wondering if there have been any developments on an accurate temperature monitor for the ASRock boards (Conroe 945-DVI in particular). Cheers. Bill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
