    I have a Sony FE-890 with the go7600 and I've tried numerous times to monitor my gpu temp unsucessfully. I installed the latest version of Riva Tuner and followed a guide here on the site that listed step by step how to monitor temps. So I was wondering if anyone has sucessfully monitored their gpu and can tell me how or if this laptop has no temp monitor built in and its not possible. Any advice appreciated, thanks.

    Yeah I was curious what temperature my GPU is after gaming for a while, since GPU's are generally much hotter than other components. That way I could judge if I need to clean it, use a cooling pad, and to determine if I could overclock it safely since Sony underclocked it when they built it.
