is cam a trustworthy tool for checking cpu temperatures? i'm using a kraken x62 and planning to overclock my i7 7700k. at stock speed under load, the temps hit around 75c. this was done in silent mode. if cam isn't reliable, what alternatives exist? real temperature or ohm?

I've heard about CAM but haven't used it myself, though it could be worth trying. Most of you here probably suggest HWmonitor or HWinfo, which I've relied on consistently without any problems.

CAM is functioning properly. It processes identical data from the sensor as HWinfo and other applications.
