Intel Power Gadget utility download link removed amidst 2018 MacBook Pro throttling controversy

<div class="feat-image"></div><p><strong>Update</strong>: The utility is back! Intel has published a minor update to version 3.5.3, seemingly to address some instability issues. Panic over. Original story below.</p>
<p>The download link for the Intel Power Gadget, which reports info like Mac CPU temperature and current clock speed, has been conspicuously removed from the Intel website today. There’s no explanation on the page as to why the company suddenly removed the download, although it sure is convenient timing. The utility has been used by many tech reviewers to highlight possible thermal problems with the 6-core 2018 MacBook Pros.</p>
<p>Perhaps Apple or Intel have discovered inaccuracies in the tool’s reporting and is now in the process of updating it.</p>
