So today I installed AMD Overdrive on my old PC (built it in mid 2013) just to check temperatures and I realized that it's not detecting the graphics card (NVidia GeForce GT630). What can I do to fix it?

Well, for one thing, I would not expect an AMD application to be compatible with an nVidia GPU.

Instead of AMD Overdrive, however, just download the MSI Afterburner application. Besides its usefulness as a GPU overclocking utility, you can also use it to monitor your GPU's operating temps & detect your FPS in-game (using the overlay).

Ok I'll do that. I didn't know AMD Overdrive doesn't detect NVidia's GPUs, I installed it because it's the only program that reads AMD processors temps correctly. Anyway, thank you for helping me out!

I used HWMonitor before and it was not reading the temps correctly, that's why I installed Overdrive. Also I have hte latest version of GT630 drivers.
