• Rainmeter Cpu Temperature Monitor
• Rainmeter Cpu Temp Monitor

Minimalist CPU & GPU temp gauges? Exactly what the title says. I just want two simple gauges to monitor the temperatures of my CPU and GPU. I've found a few on this subreddit, but most a pretty over the top and ugly. Well, rainmeter is not a CPU or GPU temperature monitor neither it can show you your PC’s CPU fan speed. Rather it’s a free PC Customization tool that allows you to display customizable skins on your desktop, from hardware usage meters to fully functional audio visualizers.

illustro Gadgets is a collection of the most popular AddGadgets.com system monitoring gadgets, restyled in the theme of illustro. It is based heavily on SIlverAzide's Gadgets replicas.
Included in the suite are the All CPU Meter, Network meter, GPU Meter (with a Dual GPU Meter variant) and Drives Meter. Also included is a settings skin, which can be accessed by clicking the settings button on any of the four gadgets. This settings skin allows you to view information about the suite, configure gadget settings, and configure HWiNFO sensor IDs.

Rainmeter Cpu Temperature Monitor

Rainmeter 3.3 is required to install this skin suite. To view CPU core temperatures, CPU fan speed, and GPU information you need to install HWiNFO (download here). HWiNFO is a free system monitoring tool that works on a variety of systems. To configure HWiNFO for illustro Gadgets, see the instructions included with the skin pack. Please note that not all computers will have the same sensors, and so some features may not be available on your system.
