Hi, I'm trying to put my new laptop through the gauntlet to make sure there's no problem with cooling.
I have 3DMark Vantage to heat it up, but what should I use to monitor the GPU temps (&/or speeds, temps most important to me though).
GPU-Z? ATItools? There's an official ATi one too i think, but I can't remember what it was called & cant find it on their site.
Thanks![]()

I use HWMonitor by CPUID, but isn't the ATI one called Overdrive?
-
I'll check out HWMonitor, ty for the suggestion.
edit: Installed HWMonitor, it doesn't show the GPU info. Just CPU, HDD, Battery, & MoBo -
Use Overdrive.
Although it does give you options to overclock, along the right side of the window it will tell you the tempuature and activity. And along the bottom it will tell you the clock speeds. -
try open hardware monitor HW monitor shows only 1 of my 2 gpu but open HW monitor shows both
it's basicaly the same as HW monitor with 1 or 2 toys aded beter suport for ati gpus and it's open source -
I use GPU-Z

As mentioned above, also try HWInfo32, as it shows temps for all the GPU sensors. Also works well with ATi cards
IMO though, Furmark is the best for stressing your card and seeing the max temps it can reach, it never gets that hot during gaming
Best app for watching ATi GPU temps?
