I have a PNY Verto 6600GT AGP. Is it possible to monitor temperature on this card? If so, how?
Thanks

Right click anywhere in your desktop, click properties, then click the settings tab, then advanced, click the Geforce 6600GT tab in the new window, then on the left hand side, click temperature settings.

Nothing there. I'm using Nvidia's latest Forceware drivers..should I try differen t drivers?

I think you need to add coolbits 2.0 to get the temp readout.

Still no temperature settings in the menu...

Did you restart after using coolbits?? If so, do you have the clock frequencies option?? Your card might not have a temp sensor, but I think it does.

 

[evil204]

Yeah, I restarted. I got all the extra options, including clock frequencies.
Are 6600GTs supposed to come with temp. sensors?

 

[adas]

yeah, all 6*** series have the temp sensors. wierd tht u cant find it. should be there. but u dont need coolbits to see temps.

yep you would think a 6600 GT would. hmmm.

I also just noticed that it says my card is AGP 4x instead of 8x. Maybe my card isn't being detected properly?

What mobo are you using?? If you only have a 4x slot, the card will default to 4x........

 

[evil204]

Asus P4T533-C. I'm pretty sure it supports 8x.
Edit: Nevermind, turns out its 4x. But this doesn't have anything to do with temp. monitoring, right?

Dont know if this is related to your Mobo or 4x slot, but i have a 6600GT OC but its 8x AGP..i installed Nvtuner and i do get the temp monitoring tool.

I have a Leadtek Winfast a 6600GT TDH, and i can monitor it's temps fine... thats weird, the manufacturer of the card should'nt matter because they are all based on the same chip...

I think were talking about the PNY 6600GT

My PNY FX 5700LE never came with a Temp Sensor but my friends BFG 5700Ultra does. I wonder if PNY is neglecting to put Temp sensors in their cards? I installed one myself.
