AMD A10 Temperatures in Rainmeter

Post by bill98 »

I have an AMD A10-6700 APU and am having difficulty getting good temperature readings. The one source I have found of accurate looking data is AMD Overdrive. AMD Overdrive provides the delta between the current temperature and the limit. This doesn't give you absolute temps, but it tells me how close to the absolute limit I am. Is there a plugin or other way to get AMD Overdrive date into Rainmeter?

No, there is no AMD Overdrive plugin for Rainmeter.

I think someone started something a few years ago, but I don't think it every really went anywhere.

Ok thanks. Is there a group that writes plugins, that I could request one from? If not, how difficult is it to write a plugin? Is that even possible without knowing the details of the AMD OverDrive?
