So Oblivion runs a bit warm on my laptop, but that's to be expected. However, I just want to see what temps it is running while playing. (I'm a bit paranoid XD)

I heard HW Monitor is good for this, but going to CNET, the only review is that the program is full of Malware (from a user, not CNET)

So...any alternatives or is the user mistaken? I know CNET tends to bundle unneeded stuff with its downloads but...

Also, what settings can I safely run Oblivion at? I turned off shadows and toned down the max sight distance, just in case. I've never really had problems with lag.

(Also, if my Laptops specs are needed, its a AMD-A10-5750M APU Processor, AMD Radeon HD 8650 G chipset, Dual Graphics. Almost 4GB of graphics RAM.)
