I am having problems with the temperature of my PC and I had a couple of automatic switch-offs with a burning smell :(

I have cleaned my pc inside the box and added a 3rd fan.

Now I´d like to monitor the temperatures and fans. What free software do you recommend me?

Thanks in advance :)

I use " Core Temp " 

Core Temp          This shows some installation hints if needed.

Also, this problem could be coming from something other than cooling, such as a bad power supply or bad motherboard. I would check your motherboard for swollen capacitors and also check your power supply.

Good luck with this !!

You should really check where that burning smell came from. I also think you have a problem with component failure and not with cooling.

I use AIDA64 Extreme  to monitor all my temps, however it is payware.

As Remontti suggested though, burning smell and PC is not a good thing, really need to investigate that thoroughly.

I opened the PC and cleaned it as best as I could. Then, I installed a third fan, on the top this time. It seems to have solved the problem. Let's cross our fingers.

You have rainmeter + Hwinfo64 by free, with little effort it can show all your data in desktop. Be free to contact me about this stuff... you know my phone.
