    temp sensor?

    Greetings,

    Just bought a new vid card (eVGA 8800gt 512mb) for my comp (an HP a6228x bought on black friday '07) and realized i have no way to tell how hot my comp runs. everything runs fine when playing CoD4 so i assume everything's good. but i'm one of those anal people who has got to know.

    so my question is, is there some sort of program i could use to tell my temps for the cpu, case, and vid card, or maybe some sort of sensor device i could hook up to my cpu, case, and vid card to see the temp?

    i know there is, i just don't know what i'm looking for.

    thanks in advance

    GPU-Z

    and ATI Tool all have built in temp monitoring. Be forewarned that GPU-Z reads ~5ºC cooler than the other programs.

    thanks for the suggestions on apps guys, but do i need any hardware (sensors etc) to run these apps?

    i don't believe i have any sensors on my comp now. i haven't seen any temp or fan speed readings when i go into the system setup before vista starts up.

    thanks in advance

    Its hardware dependant, but you will find you'll have at least a HDD sensor, cpu sensor and motherboard sensor ....

    Bios's can sometimes be very limited in info ....
