I found your app and love it!. I’ve been playing around and can’t seem to get a graph for cpu temp to populate. Box for graph comes up and label is there. Also get a for the numerical temp. I’m sure it’s something simple I’m overlooking. Can you assist? Machines are servers. 1 HP dl380gen6-7, the other a dell c2100. Both running server 2016.

Hi Chris, Yeah I don’t think the graph in it’s current form will work for you. It seems to be hard wired to a logarithmic scale. Don’t ask, it seemed like the thing to do at the time. Anyway, a rework of the charts is somewhere on the list of things to do so we can set the scale, add multiple values, colours etc

Okie Dokie Glenn. Thanks for the response. App is still the bomb! I have many VM’s that I bounce in and out of and it lets me see what is going on quickly. The temp thing is for a friend who like to see lots of metrics. Let me know when the graph is live. Is there a way to get the temp in numerical form, I just get n/a right now or is it all tied together?

Cpu temperature is problematic. Your best option right now is a tool called CoreTemp. Desktop Info has an item that will talk with that tool if running and retrieve the cpu temp from it. I’m also looking at another tool called Open Hardware Monitor.

i have been using open hardware monitor and it works fine.

my desktop runs on steam wallpaper engine + desktop info + open hardware monitor.

3 resources but.. worth it 🙂
