Thermal Monitoring Software CPU/GPU

xenosoul · 04-25-2005, 09:54 PM

I was just wondering what software is out there to monitor my Athlon 64 3200+ when I get it. Also I have a Pny 6600 GT Video card but I cant monitor the temp on that. I have checked the options and for some reason there isnt any temp monitoring choices on that. Im wondering if there just on the PCI-E version.

Thanx in advance.

easytune 5 has "pc health". it's on your driver disk.

for video card temp readings update to the latest nvidia driver. there are options in all of them for temp readings.

Display settings -> settings -> advanced -> geforce 6600 -> temp settings

I don't recommend using software to monitor temperature, I would get a thermal controller (5.25" drive) which controls fans and monitors temperature.

a lot of the 6600GT's are going out with their thermal probe disabled in the BIOS to discourage overclocking. Here is a link with instructions on how to enable it:
