    Hi,
    Is there any program compatible with vista that can monitor penryn temperature and frequency scaling?

    seems that NHC cannot do such thing!!?

    I also have tested RMclock. Although in the new feature list, it says that it can support penryn( Added identification of 45nm Intel Core 2 CPUs), but it cannot set different voltage and frequencies on demand.

    It only recognized the cpu as penryn. At least in my notebook it is like that.

    Did you use it for penryn?
