CoreFreq is a CPU monitoring and tuning tool for 64-bit processors that combines a Linux kernel module with a terminal UI to report frequencies, performance counters, temperatures, voltages, and topology with high precision. It supports Intel, AMD (including Zen), Arm A64, RISC-V RV64, and PowerPC64 architectures.

Use cases

• monitor cpu frequencies and temperatures in real time
• inspect cpu topology and cache layout
• read performance counters like TSC, IPC, and C-states
• tune and overclock the processor from Linux
• diagnose cpu behavior on AMD Ryzen or Intel systems
• view ram and memory controller information

When to choose

• you need BIOS-level CPU detail on Linux
• you want precise per-core frequency and counter readings
• you run AMD Zen, Intel, Arm64, RISC-V, or PowerPC64 hardware

When to avoid

• you need a GUI-based monitoring tool
• you run on virtual machines without MSR access
• you need a cross-platform tool for Windows or macOS
