Motherboard Monitor 5.3.7
Monitor your PC temperature from different motherboard sensor chips. more>>
Motherboard Monitor 5.3.7 is created as a helpful tool that aims to display information from the sensor chips on your motherboard in your Windows system tray.
MBM supports a wide range of chipsets and sensor chip combinations. It can sense temps from CPU, HDD, and GFX. It does also sense fan speeds. If it senses that your hardware is overheated it can protect it by shutting it down (user configured).
To see if MBM5 supports your hardware check out the Motherboard List. It does also record all temps and fans for later viewing. This is a great invention if you want to overclock. Example to see how well cooled your computer runs over a time. Full load or idle time. It's recommended for all home built systems. Specially if you make your own heat sinks or just test you newly overclocked CPU or GFX card.

SpeedFan 4.36 Beta 15 / 4.35
A small application that shows you fan speed, voltage and chip temerature. more>> A small application that shows you fan speed, voltage and chip temerature.
The main viewing purpose of SpeedFan is to show its user whats really going in their machine. When minimized, a temperature reading is showed on the button right of the desktop. When Speedfan is in an open window you can see a whole lot more. From Fan speed to total voltage, you can view any and all of the current fans.
Main features:
- handle almost any number of South Bridges
- handle almost any number of hardware monitor chips
- handle almost any number of temperature readings
- handle almost any number of voltage readings
- handle almost any number of fan speed readings
- handle almost any number of PWMs .
First of all, you have to identify which temperature sensor is which. SpeedFan strictly adheres to available datasheets for each sensor chip. Please remember that hardware monitors are chips that do have some pins (small connectors) which should be connected to some additional hardware (temperature probes, thermistors or thermocouples) in order to be able to read temperatures.
Only a few hardware monitor chips do label their connectors with "CPU", "System" and the like. Most of them use labels like "Temp1", "Local" or "Remote". The hardware manufacturers connect available pins to different temperature sensors basically according to the physical placement of components on the motherboard.
This means that the same chip, an ITE IT8712F, for example, might be connected to a sensor diode measuring CPU temperature on Temp2 and, on a different hardware, it might be connected on Temp1. If you have a "Local" sensor and a "Remote" labeled one, this usually means that "Local" is the temperature of the monitor chip itself and "Remote" is the temperature read from a "remote" probe.
When you have properly identified which temperature sensor is which, try to lower the speed of each fan and look at reported speed and temperatures. If you do not allow SpeedFan to change any fan speed and set all the speeds too low, then SpeedFan wont be able to avoid overheating.
Note: To become a beta tester you must create an accout.
Enhancements:
- Starts to examine AMCC 3ware RAID controllers, improves nVidia support, improves ARECA RAID controllers support, improves ITE IT8720F support, fixes F1 (help) key support, improves Direct RAMBUS support, adds support for new hardware and improves fan speed control strategy (fan speeds are now lowered more aggressively).

Tomb Raider II Gold demo - level 2
Tomb Raider II Gold demo - level 2 is a demo of the game Tomb Raider II Gold: The Golden Mask (Level 2: Fools Gold) being the second level of Tomb Raider II Gold. more>>
Tomb Raider II Gold demo - level 2 is a demo of the game Tomb Raider II Gold: The Golden Mask (Level 2: Fool's Gold) being the second level of Tomb Raider II Gold. In this level, Lara comes across a secret Russian government mine, long since abandoned, but populated now by mercenaries and wild animals. The Russians had obviously built themselves a stronghold in this ""national no-man's land"" to help themselves to the enormous gold reserves discovered here. But why was the mine abandoned so quickly? What did the Russian soldiers see here that scared them so much? Did any ever return safely to their homeland? Take control of Lara and see if you can find the answers to these questions, and more...
If you haven't had the chance to play any of the Tomb Raider adventures, get this one. Fool's Gold presents players with quite a few significant challenges and gives them a real taste of how the game plays. Just remember: if you get a bit overheated, go swimming to cool off.
Fool's Gold is a standalone demo featuring the second of four new levels that make up The Golden Mask scenario. Though this demo does not require the original Tomb Raider II CD in order to play, if you have it, you can place it in your CD-ROM drive while playing this demo and hear the proper CD audio tracks. Also, for maximum gaming quality, you should play Tomb Raider II Gold on a Direct3D-compliant accelerator card, if possible.

FurMark 1.6.0
FurMark is a small and very easy to use OpenGL benchmark basically focused on fur rendering. The applications rendering algorithm is highly multipass (100 passes) and each pass (or layer) uses a GLSL (OpenGL Shading Language) vertex / pixel shader to mak more>>
To increase the fur realism, two dynamic lights are used for self shadowing. The benchmark windows will offer several options allowing the user to tweak the rendering: fullscreen / windowed mode, window size, MSAA selection, duration. The benchmark also includes a GPU Burner mode (stability test). FurMark is a freeware, please read the EULA.txt before use. If you wish to contact the author, just send an email to jegx[AT]ozone3d[DOT]net and add [FURMARK] to the mail subject.
FurMark is a very intensive OpenGL benchmark that uses fur rendering algorithms to measure the performance of the graphics card. Fur rendering is especially adapted to overheat the GPU and that's why FurMark is also a perfect stability and stress test tool (also called GPU burner) for the graphics card.
The benchmark offers several options allowing the user to tweak the rendering: fullscreen / windowed mode, MSAA selection, window size, duration. This benchmark requires an OpenGL 2.0 compliant graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce 5/6/7/8 (and higher), AMD/ATI Radeon 9600 (and higher) or a S3 Graphics Chrome 400 series with the latest graphics drivers.
Major Features:
1. Benchmark mode or stability test mode (for overclockers)
2. GPU temperature monitoring and recording in a file
3. Fullscreen or windowed for each type of run mode

HDDlife 3.0.138
HDDlife - free real-time hard-drive statistics, alerts, malfunction protection more>>
HDDLife is S.M.A.R.T. technology based and works both for single PCs and large computer networks. S.M.A.R.T. technology was developed by hard-drive manufacturers to accurately predict hard-drive life span and prevent HDD malfunction.
HDDlife is a software that helps you protect your HDD.
HDDLife displays S.M.A.R.T. attributes real time and alerts system administrator if particular hard-drives attributes exceed threshold values and being at risk.
The system administrator can then back data up and/or replace endangered hard-drive. HDDLife loads on Windows start, compares new attribute values with the previous values and consumes absolutely no memory.
The program is extremely straightforward no fundamental knowledge or PC or hard-drive technology needed whatsoever. Zero failures during last four years for 100000+ hard-drives monitored!
JustNow! is a completely new technology that allows you to find out the state of health and performance rate of your hard drives immediately both when you start the program for the first time and when you start it again!
There is no need to control disks over a long period of time! No analogous software allows it! Thanks to this technology, HDDlife also shows the health and performance level in percentage as compared to a new disk.
HDDlife can work in the background mode checking and controlling the health of your hard drives and the safety of your data at certain time intervals. At the same time, it uses as little memory as possible and does not annoy you with unnecessary messages.
To be able to work efficiently, you must know not only the health, but also the performance rate of your hard drive. With HDDlife, you will be able to see when it approaches the critical level and have time to replace your hard drive before it becomes too slow and paralyzes your work.
Modern computers emit a large amount of heat and use coolers to get rid of it. A hard drive is no exception: the faster it works, the hotter it gets. When the temperature of a hard drive increases by 10C, its performance rate gets two times less!
That is why it is very important to control their temperature too. HDDlife allows you to solve this problem as well since the actual disk temperature is always displayed in the system tray (next to the computer clock).
Another nice feature is that HDDlife can show you the highest temperature the disk has reached for the entire period of its work (in case the disk supports this feature).
It will allow you to determine how the disk has been working so far, whether it has ever been overheated before and whether it will have failures in the future.
NOTE: HDDlife is freeware only for personal, non-commercial use. If you want to use it in commercial environment you must purchase a license!
