My thanks to you, aldostools, and Luan Teles, for your contributions to the PS3 scene. I don't want to come off sounding unappreciative of your work. Taking one's hand off the controller or eyes off the screen, while gaming, might result in death or some sort of a bad gaming experience. One needs to keep both hands on the controller while gaming to do the best playing in the game. It's kind of undesirable to look at another device while gaming or take your eyes off the screen while gaming. I have noticed that Luan's Teles PS3 4K Pro Mod makes the overlay (that pops up upon querying the CPU/RSX temperature & fan speed) transparent, so it's more bearable to game and not have some of the gaming view being blocked by CPU/GPU temps message. And that would be sweet! And the temps can be constantly monitored being on a small display overlay on the screen. And if it could someway be just 1 line of info on that overlay (only one line with the CPU/GPU temps and fan speed), it would make the overlay significantly smaller and not block so much of the screen. What I'm trying to convey is that the overlay message has so many lines of info that it blocks one from seeing some parts of the (screen) game being played. And if I select yes, I'm taken back to the XMB screen, and not in game anymore to see the temps while in game. If I do, do I have to uninstall webMan from the PS3? Or could I be doing something wrong, since I don't see the cpu/gpu temps being displayed in game when I hold down Select and Start while I'm in game, using the plain webMan? Also, when I hold down the PS Button while in game, I just get a promt asking me if I want to quit the game. So, I'm thinking maybe I need to install and try out webMan Mod.

My understanding is that webMan Mod is a separate software to just plain webMan. So, let me say that I don't know what version of webMan is on my PS3, as it was installed when I installed OverFlow 4.85. I'm new to CFW and even console gaming, for that matter.

I only get the game going into pause, when I try that in game. It will display a graph of temperatures over some time period. But, there is no reason why you cant launch two different copies to see both temperatures. It can display them in the tray, but only one at a time so far as I know.

I have tried holding down the Select and Start buttons to see the temps, and it works when I'm not in game, but when I try it in game, it wont display that temps message. Speedfan will monitor different temperatures, including cpu and gpu. It's good to check in now and then, and for that, stick with HWInfo.OK Let me explain something? I'm using the webMan that comes preinstalled with OverFlow 4.85 CFW. Your PC is pretty great at regulating its own temperature to below breaking point, and if your components were really getting too toasty, you'd know about it before any harm was ever done. Though when I've got a good view of what's going on there, I let sleeping dogs lie after that. When I swap a component out, sure, I'll check the new kit is working as intended, and if I swap my PC case I'll keep an eye on temperatures. Nowadays, I tend to monitor my PC a little less. That is a bit of an all-in-one open RGB control app that not only simplifies the many apps you have to install and keep up-to-date, but also allows you to then ditch the proprietary monitoring software for something simpler. Though you might find you can get the same functionality for lighting from third-party tools such as OpenRGB.
