New tool, but looks to be shaping up real fast!

Also, I know a lot of ppl are always looking for that Intel TAT (Thermal analysis tool), so here is a link that seems to be permanent as it's online for months now..
http://shintai.ambition.cz/files/tat.exe

And perhaps links to programs like these should get their own part?

You may post the link of this program cos two programs which defrag RAM (increase the amount of free RAM) are mentioned already (MemTurbo & MemÎśonster).

ram defraggers and their kind are pretty useless - they take things out of ram, but then you have to wait for them to just get loaded back in.

Founders Everest is mentioned already in Benchmarking tools section.
But as you said it is a monitoring program (mainly IMHO). Thus I edited the 11th link in Benchmarking section to clarify that the program is for benchmarking/monitoring also.
I don't want to repeat the same links in more categories.
Similarly (as you know) OCZ produces PSUs and RAM modules but the company is mentioned in RAM manufacturers section.

Thanks for corrections.
Well the URL for ClockGen is not dead but its manufacturer says "Be back soon" that's why I did not edit.
As about MemMonster & WinBoost the main URL for Magellass com company added cos they share more tweaking tools.
I corrected two more broken links (wPrime & OCCT).
