Sav Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 Hi, I'm unable to monitor the cpu (temp and load). My system is: mobo: asus p5w dh deluxe cpu: q6600 ram: 4gb dual channel 800 mhz video: geforce 8800 gts 640 mb ram Install procedure: kalyway 10.5.1 dvd (vanilla kernel + acpi fix) + kalyway combo update + kalyway 10.5.2 vanilla kernel + latest nvinject + all apple updates All is fine (pro applications, time machine, etc...), but I'd like to monitor the cpu. With Activity Monitor I'm able to watch how each core is loaded, but how can I monitor the cpu temp? By the way, I rember that it's possible to show the cpu graph on the upper bar, but I can't find the pref pane in the System Preferneces. Thanks in advance Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/88214-my-system-is-fully-working-but-i-miss-some-cpu-related-features/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advance You want the Temperature Monitor program if you have a revision B chip then your temps will be 15-20C higher than they actually are and iStat Menus will give you a CPU graph plus more in the menu bar.

MacUser2525 Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 I have a G0 step cpu.Istat only shows the hd temp. So that is why you need the already mentioned Temperature Monitor program it works well, Google on it with OS X on the end of the search and you will find it.

spanakorizo Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 what is your cpu score in xbench? take a look also at this thread we have almost the same hardware+ram+same updates,kernel,distro so you could help ,at least for the cpu perfomance http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?sho...mp;#entry635617 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/88214-my-system-is-fully-working-but-i-miss-some-cpu-related-features/#findComment-635621 Share on other sites More sharing options...
