If you are a Windows 11 user and are worried about your computer’s CPU temperature, there are several ways to check this. 24 Channels It will tell you how to find the CPU temperature using built-in functions and a few free third-party programs.

Using BIOS/UEFI

One of the ways to find out the temperature of the processor is to go to your computer’s UEFI menu or BIOS. This menu displays various information about your system, including CPU temperature. However, not all BIOS menus can show the actual CPU temperature, so depending on your device you may not find anything useful there.

Also, this method shows the CPU temperature when Windows 11 is not installed, so you won’t be able to tell if a certain program or game is causing the CPU to heat up. Another disadvantage of this method is that you need to restart the computer to enter BIOS/UEFI, this will take some time and you will also have to close all the programs you are running.

Using Core Temperature

Core Temperature It is a free program that allows you to check the processor temperature both on the main screen of the program and in the system tray. It also shows the temperature of each core of your processor, which is very convenient in some situations.

To use the program you need:

1. Visit the Core Temp website, download and install the program on your PC.
2. During installation, do not forget to uncheck “Install Your Kingdom”, which installs unwanted software on your computer.
3. Start the Core Temp program.
4. In the “Temperature indicators” section you will see the current temperature of the processor.

Temperature readings are constantly updated as your CPU’s temperature fluctuates constantly.

Using Speccy

Another popular and free application that can be used to determine CPU temperature in Windows 11 is Speccy. This program allows you to check the temperature of the processor, as well as find out other information about your PC.

You can download it from the Speccy website. Then install and open the app.

• On the main page of the program, in the “CPU” section, you will see the general temperature of your processor.
• Click on the “CPU” option in the left sidebar of the application to find out the temperature of each core.
• On the right panel, in the “Cores” section, you will see the temperature of each processor core.

Using Open Hardware Monitor

Open Hardware Monitor is the third free program we would recommend. With its help, you can control the temperature of the processor and get more detailed information about your machine.

In the “Temperatures” section of the program screen, you will see the temperature of each core of your processor. The program also displays other useful information such as the temperature of the hard disk or SSD.
