CPU temperature monitoring

by

For at least the CPU side of things, you could use WMI.

The namespace\object is root\WMI, MSAcpi_ThermalZoneTemperature

Sample Code:

ManagementObjectSearcher searcher = 
    new ManagementObjectSearcher("root\\WMI",
                                 "SELECT * FROM MSAcpi_ThermalZoneTemperature");

ManagementObjectCollection collection = 
    searcher.Get();

foreach(ManagementBaseObject tempObject in collection)
{
    Console.WriteLine(tempObject["CurrentTemperature"].ToString());
}

That will give you the temperature in a raw format. You have to convert from there:

kelvin = raw / 10;

celsius = (raw / 10) - 273.15;

fahrenheit = ((raw / 10) - 273.15) * 9 / 5 + 32;
