I use a program called Core Temp and if you have a G15 Keyboard it will display you CPU temp on the LCD screen.
Now a program to overclock you CPU directly from Windows it will depend on your CPU. I have a AMD CPU and have used the AMD OverDrive app which allows you to OC your CPU, Memory, and tweak a few other things. But being Old School I still prefer going into the BIOS to setup my OC settings and then testing them out using Prime95 and MemTest
Cheers!

No need for overclocking with a I7. I'm impressed with the current speed.
