    Not sure how you all check your temps on the GPU, but I have an eVGA 6800GS and I would like to know its temps. I used to have and ATI and I used ATI tool to get those temps, but eVGA doesn't seem to have a utility like that. They reccommend using SpeedFan or CPU-Z. CPU-Z didn't give it to me and SpeedFan is saying that my card is 127C - which I know isn;t correct.

    I am using the stock fan, and considering the Arctic Cooling Silencer - but would like to know my temps first.

    Maybe I am not using SpeedFan correctly. Anybody have a no nosense easy utility for getting those temps?

    try coolbits. My eVGA 6600gt came with a temp sensor program, just right click your desktop and select nvidia display.

    Thank you. I was wondering about that. I tried that and it worked. Funny how none of my eVGA stuff, nor their website suggested that. Their website says to use CPU-Z or speed fan. I must have spent a couple of hours clicking on all my nVidia stuff and eVGA stuff looking for the utility. I never clicked on display cause the only item it showed in that menu was the name of my monitor.
