Rijko,
Don't know what PC you're using but on my Dimension 8400, latest SpeedFan (v4.31) does not show CPU temp, only hard drive temp.
As far as I know, SpeedFan cannot read CPU temps on any Dell system, unless Dell changed something in models that came after the 8400. This issue has been on the Dell forums for years, but I've yet to see somebody find software that reports CPU temps on a Dell. And SpeedFan can only control fan speeds on Dell laptops.

okThank you for the answers, so I just must hope that my cpu doesn't get to hot.The only temp I can see, is also the hd temp.

Closest you can come is to use something like SpeedFan (free) which displays temp of hard drive in the system tray near the clock (assuming hard drive is SMART enabled), but SpeedFan can't control fan speeds on Dell desktop PCs. Go to www.almico.com
Some video card drivers, eg nvidia, report temp of the GPU on the video card and temp of ambient air around the card.
