    Hardware monitoring software.

    I'm looking for software on windows 7 that will allow me to view my hardware's current temperatures and clock rates. I've found one for my gpu (GPU-Z) but would like something that does cpu as well.

    Any recommendation would be appreciated. =)

    Aida64 is what I'm using. It's the successor to Lavalys' Everest (some people still don't know that).
