Open Hardware Monitor

Thx for the testing.

I haven't found a way to detect if a fan is not connected or just not spinning (I think this is not possible on most super i/o chips). So right now I just display 0 RPM for all fans sensors that are not spinning (because I find it stupid to hide them when they are just not spinning).

I have added some more error checking for ATI GPUs, so maybe the 0 RPM fan doesn't show up now.

The 128 °C temperature on Fintek chips should be fixed now with the just released version 0.1.6-beta.

Michael,

Your V.0.1.6 is identifying more now as I am except for "Temperature #1":

AmbientFiction · Jan 31, 2010

Grabed version 1.6 still nothing but harddrives showing up. I guess this wants the update you were speaking over. I'll try another update later down the road.

I don't get quite as many readings as some of the screenshots, but here is what I get with the Win7 system in my sig.

FatCamel · Jan 31, 2010

Ok everything seems to be working properly now thanks for the work. The only thing I don't understand is why is my Delta fan not showing? But then again it could be a wiring prob on my end.

mmoeller · Feb 1, 2010

Thx for the tests

@FatCamel: Do you see your fan on other software like HWMonitor (http://www.cpuid.com/hwmonitor.php), Everest or official tools from your mainboard manufacturer?

FatCamel · Feb 1, 2010

No I think it is on my end maybe I don't have the monitor wire connected to my board. I have the fan in a molex cause it draws so much juice so maybe I just forgot to plug the blue wire back in to the board when I cleaned.

Flitskikker · Feb 2, 2010

Nice project. It doesn't show my Radeon X1650 and my Pentium 4, but I guess those are not supported.

Fans and voltages are neither displayed.

Is the project also available in Delphi?

I.M.O.G. · Feb 2, 2010

Why would Delphi be used to write the code? (I'm not a programmer, but understand that Delphi is not a popular choice)

You can browse the code directly here:
http://code.google.com/p/open-hardware-monitor/source/browse/

mmoeller · Feb 2, 2010

You can use the code in Delphi.NET as well with almost no additional work. Just compile the relevant classes to an assembly dll and reference that from Delphi. For Win32 Delphi things would be a bit more complicated (and I guess not really worth it in general). I have written all my software in Delphi for years and it is easy to switch to C# (at least if you don't have a huge code base of non-.NET Delphi code).

@Flitskikker: What mainboard are you using?

Btw. the latest Open Hardware Monitor version 0.1.9-beta has support for a few more mainboard chip versions of the Fintek family, which needs testing.

killem2 · Feb 2, 2010

Does this monitor case temps? Like if I just want to know what my overall air space is sitting at?

mmoeller · Feb 2, 2010

Right now only with a T-Balancer bigNG fan controller and a sensor placed right.

The main problem about case air temp is having a sensor that actually measures it.

Ahh I see, i wonder if I can just get a 5.25 bay display or something that just has a thermometer attached to it.

mmoeller · Feb 3, 2010

I have just uploaded version 0.1.11-beta which adds load "sensors" for CPUs and ATI GPUs (and another bug fix for Intel core number detection).

Omsion · Feb 4, 2010

CPU temps are moving in lockstep, which I think is a bug?

mmoeller · Feb 4, 2010

It could be a bug, but it doesn't have to. Can you stress just one of the cores by setting the process affinity in the task manager to just one of the cores? And see what the temps do?

I.M.O.G. · Feb 4, 2010

It wasn't me, but your application was picked up by Dolk, and mentioned in the news links yesterday:
http://www.overclockers.com/today-in-hardware/

Hopefully it will help more people remain active in testing this for you. Down the road, when your ready, we'd love to feature a full article also. Glad to see the work your doing.

Well done on the app, it is honestly one of the best I have seen, quite a few programs can't read half of yours on my pc. It is a lightly modded Dell SC440. Pic just incase you would like to see

EDIT:
Would love to see some kind of system tray monitor, or an always on top function if possible?

mastrdrver · Feb 4, 2010

Thought I would throw in and help.

The second gpu on the 4870x2 is not showing anything. I also have no fans showing even though I have something hooked up to all 5 of the headers on the board.

Also, if you want some help figuring out how to get data from the cpu on temperatures, you might ask Unclewebb. He is usually present on XS mostly, but I've seen him post from time to time on others, including this on.
