Kort geleden is er een nieuwe release candidate van CoreTemp verschenen. Dit kleine, gratis programma kan de processor van de computer identificeren en in de gaten houden. Zo laat Core Temp onder meer de temperatuur en werkdruk van de afzonderlijke cores zien. Op deze pagina is een lijst van alle ondersteunde processors te vinden. De verzamelde informatie wordt in een log weggeschreven, zodat deze later in een grafiek kan worden gezet, bijvoorbeeld in Excel. Ook is het mogelijk om de processor via een Android- of Windows Phone-app in de gaten te houden. Sinds RC4 zijn de volgende veranderingen en verbeteringen aangebracht:
Version 1.0 RC8
New:Fix:
- Added support for all current Intel and AMD processors.
- System lock up/crash in Windows 8/10.
- BSOD on AMD Trinity and Richland APUs.
- Temperature on Trinity/Richland APUs.
- Incorrect bus frequency in Windows 8/10.
- Corrected VID for newer AMD processors.
- Corrected detection of certain Xeon processors.
- Multiple other bugs corrected.
Version 1.0 RC6
New:Fix:
- Digital signature. Core Temp is digitally signed by 'Artur Liberman', it is now easy to tell that you have a genuine copy of Core Temp.
- Update Checker. Core Temp can now notify you when a new version is available.
