System temperatures to ASC4

[Late]

It would be nice to see the system temperatures in Advanced SystemCare4!

Yes! This is good idea!!!

This would be nice in some tool, kind of like how "Smart Ram" works, with the ability to have it launch at login to Windows.

 

One problem is though this isn't easy to implement. There is no high level API for getting ACPI-GPU-CPU temps without gradually building databases of driver interfaces. This is what products like SpeedFan and others have to do.

Yes, Very complicted since each drive and motherboard manfacturer does it a little different and even different models from each company.

So the database has to be updated constantly as new board types are sold.

Wouldn't it be possible to include a tool that uses the same database as SpeedFan? (Provided there is not some legal issue in the way.)

There is legal issues, their developers and contracted developers researched them all and hard coded them. Their is no licensed database that I know of. You usually dig through registry and kernel API to get addresses then figure out offsets or calls to get values. The land of hardware interfaces is usually obscure unless you're a MS developer who get docs for them. Linux kernel developers are still reverse engineering them till this day, in a lot of cases.
