Question Who is right, NVidia driver or GPU-Z??? Temperature???
When I check my temperature of my GT8800 in the NVidia tools it says 58° Celsius, and when I check it with GPU-Z 0.1.9. it says 50° Celsius!
That is a 8 degrees different! Now who is showing the right temperature??? NVidia or GPU-Z???
Thanks in advance.
Best regards, Kodiak.

GPUZ is usually wrong, it gives me a 38deg load temp, while ATItool, Riva, and EVGA Precision tell me 50.
