    Many of you may find this useful if you want to monitor your CPU/GPU temps in 64bit apps/games. I know alot of you have been complaining about this in BF4, so here you go.

    It's no RivaTuner but it gets the job done.

    PlayClaw - the trial works fine

    Strange, what game were you playing ? I have only tried it in BF4 and 3D Mark 11 and things worked fine.

    That's a real bummer. I don't use it enough to know why that is. Sorry to hear it doesn't work for you.

    I am going to spend some time and look into this to see if it was some thing specific in my setup that breaks it.
