As googling brought up a plethora of options i was wondering if anyone here could recomend something?
One that does GPU and CPU temp and can overclock my Gpu aswell would be good.
Cheers in advance.

Coretemp is my fave and works really good for monitoring Temps and Processor speed, VID and load per core. Download CoreTemp 0.99.3

I wasn't sure about Coretemp, and if it would work on a AMD CPU. Never tried it before. I always used speedfan for AMD's.
But I would use CoreTemp over any other app if it actually works for AMD's. |

Core temp is ace and works just fine with my 4800+. Both cores temperatures in my tray telling me what's going on
Although i do find it odd that there is a difference between CPU cores temperature.. |

there will be, if one is being used more than the other, then naturally one is going to get hotter than the other. |

^Yep. At some points my Quad will be up to 10° different at times. It all depends on the chip.. |

Just didn't think they would be far enough away from each other to be that difference is temperature. |
