Version history for Core Temp

<<Back

Changes from v0.99.2 to v0.99.3

• Add: Correct TjMax values for 45nm Core 2 series, according to this document.

• Add: Initial Intel Nehalem support.
• Add: Initial support for AMD's Griffin cores - Untested.
• Add: Improved Intel Atom support.
• Add: Support latest AMD K8 CPUs.
• Add: Support for HyperThreaded CPUs. Core Temp will only display the physical cores and average load on each core.
• Add: Support for Pentium E5000 series.
• Add: Display core and thread count per CPU.
• Add: GUI Adjustments of Temperature offset and G15 applet via the Settings window.
• Add: Create a screenshot function. Access from "Options" menu or by F9 shortcut.
• Add: Shortcut key for register dump file: F7.
• Add: Update register dump output: APIC ID, CPU number, Core number, Thread number.
• Change: Move all settings to the ini file out of the registry.
• Change: Rename ini file to CoreTemp.ini.
• Change: Temperature offset adjustment works for AMD CPUs as well.
• Change: Atom Tj.Max adjusted for more accurate readings.
• Change: Cleaned up code a little bit.

Changes from v0.98.1 to v0.99

• Fix: Incorrect recognition of 45nm Mobile Intel CPUs.
• Fix: CPU temperature not displayed in Core Temp window on Phenom CPUs (0.98 and 0.98.1).
• Fix: CPU load would sometimes display -1% load.
• Fix: AMD K8 would sometimes spike to 206C, the false reading is now ignored.
• Fix: AMD K8 sometimes constantly reads -49C.
• Fix: Core Temp does not show up automatically on G15 LCD with 2.02 driver.
• Fix: Shared memory structure was not properly filled on multiprocessor systems.
• Fix: System tray setting "Show highest temperature of each CPU" only displays one temperature reading in a multi CPU system.
• Fix: Certain problems with font resizing should now be fixed.
• Fix: G15 LCD would not update after using soft buttons.
• Fix: On temperature display mode change, high and low records were not reset.
• Fix: Changing the reading interval in settings did not actually update, restart of Core Temp was needed to apply the change.
• Fix: Incorrect VID detection on 45nm desktop Intel parts.
• Add: Shared memory - developers now have access to Core Temp data.
• Add: Register dump to text file function.
• Add: Preliminary Atom (Silverthorne) support - Untested.
• Add: Support for Intel Core 2 Duo E7000 45nm series.
• Add: Option to show a single icon instead of temperature in the system tray.
• Add: Custom font and size for G15 LCD screen or simply use the built in compact font and layout. (via Settings.ini)
• Change: Improved detection of L2 cache on Intel chips for more accurate recognition.
• Change: Rewritten temperature calculation to fix problems with shared memory.
• Change: Default G15 LCD text layout and font changed.
• Change: Doesn't create a log file containing session start and end times if logging is disabled.
• Change: Settings.ini file is automatically created with default settings in case one doesn't already exist.
