Hi all,

I just bought a Club 3D 6600GT 128MB from Overclocker.co.uk. My question is
how do I get the temperature information in the Nvidia drivers? I'm trying
version 71.24 at the moment. Have also tried 66.93 and 67.03. I can't find
anything temperature related anywhere. Does this mean the card doesn't have
a sensor?

Cheers.

You need coolbits, reg entry.

At the bottom right of your system tray right click the NVIDIA SETTINGS
icon and choose NVIDIA display and this should popup the model of your
monitor so select this. Go to temperature settings...is this what you
needed?

Coolbits has been superceded by NVTweak. Get NVTweak here:

Very likely. A BIOS update might get it done.

Thanks.

No it wasn't, I know where the information should be, but there is no
temperature options.

Tried this already, but still no temperature options.

Thanks.

Club-3D (www.club-3d.com) doesn't do any BIOS updates because of the risks
involved.

Use rivatuner to give you the temp.

Gives lots of info voltages, speed of gpu + mem , ambient temp etc..

About the only thing that'll give me temp readings on my Asus V9999 is
"SmartDoctor", an overclocking utility from Asus. Unfortunately, in order to
use all it's features I'd have to run Asus enhanced drivers and they're back
in the 62.xx range. I can still run it to get temp readings, though.
