what do you use to keep an eye on cpu and gpu temps

New build, Ryzen 7 and an RTX card. I want something light that shows temps in an overlay while I game, not a bloated suite. What's everyone running?
temp monitor

MSI Afterburner with RivaTuner is still the lightest overlay. GPU temp works out of the box. For the Ryzen temp, run HWiNFO in sensors-only mode and hook it into RTSS, then pick which readings show. The NVIDIA app overlay is fine for GPU stuff but won't give you a proper CPU temp.
