1333046 2013-03-17 03:19:00 Can the asus probe II be made to show the CPU temp on the desktop while a game is running.
Or is there a better app for doing this.

System is:

Asus P5Q-pro
Win7

1333048 2013-03-17 20:07:00 You really either need dual monitors so you can put it on one while you game on the other or a program that logs the temperatures so you can leave it running and check it later because if you alt tab out of the game it tends to stop loading up the graphics card and temperatures drop immediately.

Any of them including asus probe can be parked on a second monitor. I haven't used Core temp so I don't know what it's features are but if it doesn't log temps then realtemp is another - it shows max and min temps since it was started as well as current. There's also speedfan which I think from memory might have an option to graph temps over time while it's running although it's a bit more complicated to use (sometimes you have to figure out what sensors apply and choose them)

The Core Temp did the trick & told me what I needed to know.
