Need something to show temperature

Why everyone,

I'm looking for something to watch the temperature of my CPU (mostly GPU temperature can be check by the game) so what I want is like an overlay. For exemple, in Call of Duty Modern Warfare we can enable gpu temperature fps etc... but not the cpu temperature :-1: so if you have any idea to show that when a game is launch, I'll be happy. PredatorSense do it but I need to alt+tab for check.

Thanks

    MSI Afterburner is what you need. It's not just for overclocking...a little fiddling around and you can get onscreen overlays of all your temps, even core usage. Once you get it downloaded, watch a you tube video on how to set it up. (It's easy, and less resource intensive than Predator Sense).   https://www.msi.com/page/afterburner

    I know this soft but a friend said it is heavy for the cpu in game just for showing the overlay.

    I've never had an issue...and to the best of my knowledge, it's the only show in town.

    No too hot, lol...

    I saw your other thread and you have already done what I was going to suggest...blow out fans, re-apply TIM. Nice new temps, better than mine. 

    Also, I got stuck shopping for make-up with my daughter (dreadfully boring) so I looked into the CPU usage from Afterburner. Certainly it does use some CPU cycles, it is doing a thing after all, but the impact on system performance really seems insignificant. 

    I feel confident saying Afterburner is your best option for a system information overlay app.
