    Alternatively, you can try Notebook Hardware Control or RM Clock Utility.

    I'm just wondering, Does RM Clock and NHC shows the same core temp? Because it's always different for me by 10 degree celcius, with NHC showing a higher temp.

    Well, you can try both and compare.
    Btw, what do you mean by "it's always different for me by 10 degree celcius, with NHC showing a higher temp.".
    This is in comparison with which (other) program?

    what i meant was, for example:

    Using NHC, showing me temp of 50C

    Shut down NHC, use RM Clock, will show me temp of 40C

    Even when using both together, if NHC goes up by 1C, RM Clock will also go up by 1C. However the difference in temp is 10C, e.g NHC 55C, RMC 45C

    Hope that's clear

    It's possible that each program measures a different temperature: one may measure the temperature directly off the CPU, the other one from a sensor on the MB. Try some other programs (like Motherboard Monitor and/or SpeedFan and/or Core Temp -as miner pointed out above-) and see what they tell you.
