get the LATEST drivers and there is an inbuilt one, like bossa ritchie said.

EDIT: its *possible* your GPU does not have a sensor, if so you cant monitor it.

Chill out son there is no need to start the name calling it will end up nobody will help you, I have seen other posts with the name calling and it is frowned upon and it also makes you look like childish. Ive seen people use strong language and it is acceptable, sometimes strong language is kind of needed to emphasize a point but you can use it constructively and not at gutter level, the moron statement is not funny it is not even smart it just makes you look like a ned and childish.

Alf look at these pic's you should see the 6800 in the one panel after clicking adavnce.Then click on the 6800 tab and you will see temps .If you dont asus has a program for reading temps and adjusting timmings and voltage but you have to run the asus drive for it to work.Sorry i cant get a screen shot of the open panel but for some reasonits not showing when i amke the screen shot.but just open the 6800 tab and a side bar will show up and you will find your temps in there.Or you could use rivatuner

I replied in such a manner as disgust for your ignorance.

"obviously he has not looked properly."

You seem to think that all the people who come here have 0 % knowledge of their computer. Get over yourself, and listen to what people have to say. I explained the problem, and still, you, sitting somewhere else in the world, tell me, that im not looking properly.

Now, Mothow.
Thanks for those pictures, but i know where im looking, and there is no temperature displayed. That is why i am here, ASKING if there is other software for nVidia GPU's that monitor GPU temperature.

Is there anyone else who can help? Preferably someone who doesnt critisize and treat you like a fool for asking questions.

>> here's what you do
hey man i have the exact same card and they're telling you the truth they just don't seem to be able to explain it well... here's what you do... right click on your desktop and choose properties then click the settings tab, now here's where it gets werid hit advanced, now a new window will pop up go stright to the GeForce 6800 tab. okay so you should be looking at a screen talking about driver stats memory addressing "blah blah blah..." anywhere this is were it gets confusing there is a like green button with an around on it near the left edge of the window about halfway down the window click on that and it will open a drop screen next to the current window now just click tempurtare settings and BOOM you got your system Temp... no name calling needed....
