I just got my BFG 8800GTX OC 756mb video card and i'm wondering where I can check the gpu temp at? I go into the nvidia display settings and don't see anything about temperature. I've used ati in the past many times so where am I missing this setting?

Thanks.

You could also download nvidiamonitor off the web. If you have an Nvida chipset it'll give you all your motherboard data also.

Nvidia Monitor looks like a cpu temp reading program and ati tool I can't find the gpu temp anywhere as well as with riva tuner. Where the heck is the gpu temp?

i'm using the 158.45 BETA drivers so maybe thats why. using them specifically cuz company of heroes suggested it for dx10 use.

Open Nvidiamonitor. It will display CPU, MB temps. Down in the lower right hand corner there is a button with an arrow on it, click it. Voila! GPU temps. You're welcome!
