While there are basic command line tools you can use to check out sensors like "watch -p -t -n .5 sensors" or checking out your cpu's line of thread frequencies with "watch -p -t -n .5 grep MHz /proc/cpuinfo".
What are some utilities that you like the most? I know of oldies like gkrellm with sensor support, but when it comes to actually providing a histogram type function while showing current thermals, peak, and low temperature hits, I have yet to find anything more customizable and replete as psensor. I have been using it for years, sadly it seems to be unmaintained since about 2020.
In order to compile it from source I actually had to correct a very small part of it to get it to build. This did not bother me at all, I actually enjoyed it but I lack major coding skills.
Here is the source https://gitlab.com/jeanfi/psensor/-/releases. A lot of distributions already have it in their repositories which is a good thing.
I have yet to find a better thermal monitor. Psensor is an awesome project.
Just curious what other people use.
