So I’m back on posting some scripts again!.
This is one (of many) script(s) I started ages ago but never got around to finishing and today its finally done.

Using a library provided by Open Hardware Monitor I was able to create a PowerShell script that would get the actual temperatures of CPU cores.
If you would like to see a list of the TJMax values you can find it here

NOTE: Increase the Script execution time to 150 seconds just to allow the download of OHM on the first run.

As always, if you would like to buy me a beer you can do so using this link.
