Is there a utility that will give my GPU temps?

I think I overheated once already, and I've raised the fan speed since, but I would like to know what's going on.

Thanks

If you just want to see the various hardware readings, you can try CPUID's Hardware Monitor:

There are a bunch. I would start with speedfan, which might enable you to control your fans, depending on motheboard. Coretemp is another that I have used.

?? I knew that Core Temp did CPU cores, never knew it did others.

Way cool (no pun intended.)

I think he misread the topic. CoreTemp doesn't do anything but CPU temps AFAIK.

For a general GPU tool, RivaTuner.

You are correct. I did misread the topic. Speedfan still is a good choice, though

I use GPU-Z. If your card has sensors, it'll read them.
