Softpedia Editor's Review for Motherboard Monitor
|
A tool that will display information from the sensor chip on your motherboard
Written by Elena Opris on November 11th, 2011
Motherboard Monitor is a system utility tool that enables you to view information of your motherboard.
Indeed, it supports a lot of boards and revisions, but it would certainly need an update in this area. Unfortunately, MBM can't tell you if the motherboard information you have selected is accurate or not.
To make matters worse, the software is difficult to handle, so it's not recommended for novice users. You must know the make and model of the motherboard of your computer, as well as configure other options.
If you don't know the type of your motherboard, then you probably have to install a third-party software that can tell you this information.
The help file doesn't exactly explain everything there is to know about this application, so understanding all the terms may be tough (don't hesitate to look up anything you're not familiar with).
Here you can view general information, temperatures (CPU, hard drive, graphics), voltages, fans (including fan speed), alarm options, system tray information, interval logs, and third-party software.
MBM can shut down overheated systems, and record a report that you can later view. Fortunately, you can enable MDB to send you emails with notifications, so you will be alerted at all times.
While MBM is active, CPU and memory resources are minimally used.
This type of software is great for gamers or whoever wants to overclock their system. So, if you want to find out what temperatures your system is using, Motherboard Monitor is the type of program that can tell you that.
