Good way to monitor times WHILE playing?

[axlrose]

Is there a way to monitor temps while playing instead of playing and then stopping to check peak temps etc.?

Thanks.

You can chart temps while playing with speedfan.

You can get Afterburner & Rivatuner on guru3d.com. Rivatuner offers a customizable on screen display that includes cpu/gpu temp and just about anything else you want to know. The color of the OSD is customizable and can be toggled on and off on the fly, and it can even take screen shots in games without the option to do so. This seems to be a nice setup guide: http://www.overclock.net/a/how-to-use-rivatuner-afterburner-on-screen-display-and-more

Yes...

1. Logitech KB w/ LCD displaying GPU temps

2. Play in windowed mode (i.e 1920 x 1000), leaving the bottom 80 pixels to display your monitoring graph

3. On Screen overlay

Of course you can record temps with many utilities but that doesn't solve your stated problem of being able to see temps while playing

trying windowed mode for the time being. Really takes away from a game when you can't be immersed in it.

I always play in windowed mode. Like anything new, it is very noticeable at first. Guys tend to be less observant when they become husbands and that gets us in trouble... and depending on what it is we don't notice, there are varying levels of pain to be experienced

Installed my hue+ tonight and it has cam software that runs real time on screen while you play.
