I covered Hardware Monitor in detail in this recent Mac Gem, so I won't repeat myself too much here. Although there are lots of monitoring utilities out there, Hardware Monitor provides more data than anything else I've run across, especially on Intel Macs with its optional X86 driver installed. You can also see some general system information, such as your machine's build date (week of 10/13/2006 for my Mac Pro) and its cache, memory, and CPU details. While there are free apps to just monitor temperatures (including Marcel's own free Temperature Monitor), Hardware Monitor offers a look at other items within your machine that may be causing issues (or that you just want to use to display pretty graphs!).
