Has anyone else tried HWmonitorPRO?

Its free for 30 days

-You can finally put the temperatures on the taskbar (though you still cant hide the main program)

-Rename the headings

-Remotely monitor other computers temperatures. (Good for server admins)

 

Thanks for the post, Flipfire.

I was thinking of getting this but then the FAQ' said they have the same monitoring features as the classic n free version'.. ofcourse there is more options for customizing and reporting temp' in the taskbar with the pro.. but didn't really feel the need.

Ah btw, I wasn't sure about the fan thing too.. couldn't understand clearly if it reports the fan rpm' too! Can you please clarify on that Flipfire? And how is it good to know the fan rpm or temp'? does it mean anything or suggest anything in term' of changing usage patterns or having to be cautious about something? Thanks.

 

cool program, however if you just want the temp in your taskbar then try CORETEMP it puts the highest temp of all your cores in the taskbar (cos the highest temp is really all that matters unless one is like room temperature or somethin) ill grab a link 1 sec

It only reports fan RPM and vCores for desktops, unless your motherboard supports it.

I guess PRO version is only diagnostically useful for server use.

I still like how you can rename the headers and be able to put it in the tooltray

 

Ahh, ok. Thanks a lot @ Flipfire.. Yep, the header renaming and tooltray utility look' nice.. instead of having to open the window to see the temp'..
