Hi, My tech knowledge is limited however I have been poking around the A-tuning software & it occurred to me it would be nice to have a widget showing cpu/gpu load/temps etc. I know there are other programs out there for this (msi afterburner for example) but it would be nice to have an asrock version that knows my mo'board & will display my cpu temps correctly:)

I have found that things like speccy will often tell me my cpu (A10-6800k) is ridiculously hot (to the point where a auto-shutdown should have occurred) whereas a-tuning will tell me things are fine!

I've been thinking the same thing. My last mobo (Asus) had a nice desktop widget with an alarm for when I'm busy shooting zombies and not paying attention to anything else.

I'm planning on test driving http://openhardwaremonitor.org/" rel="nofollow - Open Hardware Monitor this weekend, but would be nice to have one specifically for ASRock boards.
