How to check system temperature ?

After long hour of operating, we can feel heat from our system, especially laptop. To check the temperature, we can go to bios menu during booting. But if u want to check it under running window, then u need to install some softwares. Here, i introduces 2 freewares that enable user to check their system temperature.

1. Speed Fan

SpeedFan monitors fan speeds, temperatures and voltages in computers with hardware monitor chips. It can even access S.M.A.R.T. info for those hard disks that support this feature and show hard disk temperatures too, if supported. It can even change the FSB on some hardware. At the lowest level, it is a hardware monitor software, but its main feature is that it can control fan speeds according to the temperatures inside your pc, thus reducing noise and power consumption.


2. Motherboard Monitor

Motherboard Monitor reads temperature and fan RPM data collected by your system’s BIOS, displays it in the Windows system tray, and alerts you when there’s trouble. You can use this application to manage your resources and alarms by doing things like setting an alarm to go off, or having an email sent to another computer, when your motherboard starts to overheat. You could even have programs start and stop when your CPU reaches predetermined temperatures.
