Each core on these processors has a digital thermal sensor (DTS) that reports temperature data relative to TjMax which is the safe maximum operating core temperature for the CPU. As your CPU heats up, your Distance to TjMax will decrease. If it reaches zero your processor will start to throttle or slow down so maximizing your distance away from TjMax will help your computer run at full speed and more reliably too. Main Features Reads temperature information from all Intel Core based processors. Ability to individually calibrate Real Temp for each core of your CPU. Program is based on temperature data gathered using a Fluke 62 IR Thermometer. Test Sensors feature will check your DTS sensors for any sign of problems. Keeps track of Minimum and Maximum temperatures with full logging features. Reporting and logging of the Intel PROCHOT# thermal throttle activity bit. Quick, very accurate and repeatable benchmark. Displays MHz, TjMax, VID, CPUID, APIC ID and Calibration settings. No installation or registry modifications required.
