So I just got this baby, and before I start pushin it I want to do some temp monitoring.

I have RivaTuner, I can see the OC options, but no temp readings. Powerstrip doesn't seem to tell me anything too useful.

I read that you can monitor temp in the Nvidia control panel, however, even with the latest forceware, I don't see that anywhere.

Where in these programs are the temp readings!??!?!

You can monitor it in the NVidia controls. It's called NVMonitor, or you can click "Monitor my temperature levels" or something like that.

Works for current Riva versions too.

Or/and bring up Riva, in the main screen find the bar detailing "256-bit G92 (xx, 112sp) with 512MB DDR3" under Target Adapter, click on the drop-down tab next to it and to the left you will see a magnifying glass over a black stick, within that you can monitor the temp as a graph throughout a period of time. Nice feature.

Still can't see any options in Nvidia control panel, but found the graph in RivaTuner. Thanks... but idling at 66. Ouch. I have a new case and fans in the mail, hopefully they'll help, or I might be considering after market cooler.
