I have an Abit KT7A and using MBM 5, How can I get my video card temps to show on my MBM?
I'm ordered the blue orb, has anyone used it? is it good, bad, or don't make a difference.

I also have a card blower with 68CFM commin in soon, along with my cyclone under my v card I'm thinkin it should stay pretty cool.

I've also seen alot of people putting HSF on there v card. The coolest one is the golden orb on a video card with zip ties. I want to do that but then i won't be able to use my cyclone.


but with the cyclone and the stock HSF I'm still able to push my ramdac over 410

You won't be able to using MBM. Some video cards come with a hardware monitor program, but you should know that the temps of the chip are not important as the screen distorts with excessive heat... so when overclocking a video card and the picture distorts, especially when gaming, you know that setting is too high and to back off a few mhz.
