aznracer Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 MSR Tools is a thermal sensor program. Copy it to your HD for it to run properly. Can anyone modify this app to read all 4 cores instead of 2? Thanks.

mitch_de Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Works great on my C2D (ok, the first values are not shown). And its much more than only an thermal sensor MHZ values and mVolt values are also shown right! THANKS! I would also post that in the speedstep Thread (superhai) - also useful there. At the screenshoot you see the menue with vales from speedtesp/CPUMConrol (both superhai).

No problem...glad it helped you. Now if only someone can get this to read the other 2 cores for the quads.

FavleX Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 yes it seems working here too but it gives system load excessive..forced shutdown ealier Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/135974-msr-tools-thermal-sensor/#findComment-964774 Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickF Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 What's the source of this? (wants admin passwd) Also seems to occasionally go to 100% cpu utilization making the system completely non-responsive (reboot needed).

davidcmc Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 Works here. But, as FavleX said, it occasionaly loads CPU at 100% and system becomes unresponsive. Is there any other way to read CPU temperatures? I've already tried Temperature Monitor (also installing it's Additional x86 Drivers), but it doesn't work too.

Ztardust Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 I assume this doesn´t work on AMD? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/135974-msr-tools-thermal-sensor/#findComment-967219 Share on other sites More sharing options...
gengstapo Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 hmm it workin' on my rig, but the accuracy it couldnt verify anyways, it just read core 0 & 1, its left out my another 2 cores.. hope there will major update in future Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/135974-msr-tools-thermal-sensor/#findComment-967327 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ztardust Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 I decided to test it, even though I assumed it wouldn´t work on AMD, and as expected: kernel panic... Us AMD users really need a program that can measure temperature, there is nothing that works properly.

Altimit Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 Works fine for me, no issues so far. It reports that I have speedstep enabled though my clock speed/voltage never actually gets reduced...

Beerkex'd Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Of all the screenshots posted, unless you were actually doing something demanding while running MSRTools, Speedstepping seems to be working only for Goron, Mitch and myself. More information on how to get it working in this thread: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=181631 MSRTools Snow Leopard version here (32-bit only): http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php...t&p=1259137 Core 2 Duo E8500 with native speedstepping Running @ 2GHz, 37 degrees celsius, lowest supported multiplier and voltage: Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/135974-msr-tools-thermal-sensor/#findComment-1308380 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitch_de Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Snow Leopard version here (32-bit only):http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php...t&p=1259137 Thanks , really unique tool i am using with 10.5. But i always have the problem of freezing (kernel cpu overload) after some time (specially if i run an app / bench). I posted this to the link above. Would be fine if that freeze problem could be fixed if the source would be available and some heros look in that. I believe the problem must be in the .kext of msr not the main app. That SL version (link last post) seems to work also on 10.5.
