How to Monitor CPU Temp From Windows
The Windows operating system does not have a native utility available to monitor your CPU temperature. If your computer seems to be overheating, or you overclocked your CPU, you can monitor the CPU temperature with free software. Speedfan allows you to monitor the temperature along with other hardware statistics. It also allows you to change fan speeds. Hmonitor and CPU thermometer show you a graph so that you can monitor the temperature over time.
