    Hi,

    Was wondering whats the best program to use for monitoring the cpu temp? I've tried Sisoft sandra, its reporting really high temps. About 4 days ago I put artic silver 5 on my cpu, I know there is a wear in period, but my temps are up to 69 C, sometimes up to 80 if I start encoding a video or something..

    Is this normal?

    Using an asus v1s-b1
