    what video card do you have, the 9500 or the hd3650? for cpu temps the best is coretemp, just google it and get the beta version. if you have the 9500m gs, you can use something from nvidia called ntune, it shows the gpu and cpu temps, and allows you to overclock, just use the system monitor that comes packaged with the ntune installation

    He's only talking there about OC the gpu (that's what nTune does).

    OC the cpu requires FSB hacks and often voltage adjustments, which are dangerous and can do bad things to your MB & CPU if incorrectly used.
