Can I test the temp of my video card?

[ArcticFox]

I currently have a BFG Asylum Ti 4200 128mb (AGP 4x if you care), and it's overclocked to 300/545. I have no stability problems whatsoever even with the OC'd vid card and CPU (2500+ at 3200+, 333Mhz to 400Mhz FSB), but I'd like to know the temp of my card without having to by an infrared thermometer. Is their any way I can do this?

Thanks,

does your mobo have a secondary sensor that you can plug in another sensor and tape it to the card. my mobo has an extra temp sensor plug that i can use as a remote temp sensor. if not i think you would have to buy another temp monitor

No it doesn't. I'm running an Asus A7N8X Deluxe, btw.

haha, no, I got mine from Fry's *shudders at their history of restocking defective products*. Here's a link to the device I would buy if it wasn't $100.

Wow, thanks for those links. I'll probably see about one of those, even if it's just for fun.
