I've switched to a 7800X3D and am curious about the best methods to track CPU temperatures during gaming. I'm planning to run Shadow of the Tomb Raider while monitoring CPU temps to gauge performance and keep things calm.

I usually rely on coretemp on a secondary display, though hwinfo64 performs equally well. Both methods allow logging temperatures to a CSV file, roughly.

If your chip goes past 70c I’ll be taken aback. Just one core failed at 70c while playing Once Human, so I might have to discuss it.

You mainly rely on RTSS, but with a second monitor you could use HWInfo for details. Or record a HWInfo benchmark during gameplay and analyze it later.

It really undermines the goal of keeping track while you're using it, doesn't it?
