Does this app only measure fan sensor temperature? I compared it to Thermograph X and what's marked as "fan sensor temperature" in Thermograph X is the same as the (only) temperature that Temperature Monitor records. So I'm assuming that Temperature Monitor only records the fan sensor temperatures and NOT the core temperatures. Whereas Thermograph X records both fan sensor and core temperatures. Which is sensor is more important to monitor? The core or the fan? Both?

@Colonel Panik: That ThermographX displays a so called "fan sensor temperature" on MDD models is a bug in ThermographX. You may notice that the value never changes, it's just a fantasy reading.
Temperature Monitor handles this correctly.
