It will always take some work on your part to match up the skin with the correct application, plugin and settings for your system. cpu gpu temp appear in wrong position Get help with creating, editing & fixing problems with skins. The long and the short of it is that NO skin you download is ever going to work for measuring hardware sensors out of the box. It all depends on what the skin you're using expects, running the correct application, and then some tweaking of the options in the skin to match things up with your actual hardware. I added GPU temp/usage for it, I could send you the files if you want to (works with Afterburner, not sure if that was the default program needed). It has what you need but you need MSI afterburner for it to work. So there is no simple answer to your question. There is an advanced version of the default skin that comes with Rainmeter. what is going on is that the actual application, CoreTemp, SpeedFan, HWiNFO, etc., do the measuring, and the matching plugin for Rainmeter is able to get the results from the application to use in a skin.ģ) You will then need to look at the instructions for the desired Rainmeter plugin, to see how you tell your skin which specific sensors (it will vary wildly depending on the application/plugin and your system) you want to measure, and how you set the options in the skin to do so. Rainmeter does not and cannot measure sensor values. This is a 3rd-party plugin, that must be downloaded and installed in Rainmeter prior to using it in a skin: Step 3: Copy and paste the following script into a new Rainmeter skin file, adjusting the settings as needed Step 4: Save the script with a. Make sure to keep CoreTemp running in the background to continuously monitor your CPU. These come with Rainmeter and are ready to use: Step 2: To enable CPU temperature monitoring, download the CoreTemp application. One of these applications must be running on your system while the skin is loaded.Ģ) Use the appropriate Rainmeter plugin for the application you are using: If you did it but still no result, open 'Registry Editor' (WinKey + R then type 'regedit', or just type 'regedit' in Windows 10 Start menu), run it and go to ComputerHKEYCURRENTUSERSoftwareFinalWireAIDA64SensorValues, then search for CPU Temperature related sensor name. First you need to know which application and corresponding Rainmeter plugin a skin is using to measure sensor values.Īt its most basic, the way you use Rainmeter to measure hardware sensor information is:ġ) Run an application on your system that measures these values.
