How do I get the NVIDIA core temperature in an integer value?

Question

I am taking a Arduino microcontroller class and I\'m working on my final project: an automated computer cooling system that works according to case temperature.

I wa

Answer 1

I'm gonna go ahead and answer my own question after a long time of searching how to do that i found a way to get the data.

Using the OpenHardwareMonitor.dll from their open source links i was able to get what i needed.

This is the code i used in a windows c# application (it might not be the best way to do it but it gets the job done.

Hope someone finds this helpful:

using OpenHardwareMonitor.Hardware;

. . .

public partial class mainWindow : Form
{

    Computer myComputer;

    public mainWindow()
    {
        InitializeComponent();

        myComputer = new Computer();
        myComputer.Open();
        myComputer.GPUEnabled = true;
        myComputer.CPUEnabled = true;
        foreach (var hardwareItem in myComputer.Hardware)
        {
            if (hardwareItem.HardwareType == HardwareType.GpuNvidia)
            {
                foreach (var sensor in hardwareItem.Sensors)
                {
                    if (sensor.SensorType == SensorType.Temperature)
                    {
                        GPUtemp.Text = String.Format(sensor.Value + "°C");
                    }
                }
            }
            if (hardwareItem.HardwareType == HardwareType.CPU)
            {
