Not all cards come with hardware monitoring.

You may need to use an external thermal probe, but generally with video cards heat causes the display/picture to distort well before overheating will damage anything.

icic.
luckily my graphics ain't distorted yet.
btw, anyone know what is the max stable speed for geforece 2 mx-400?
it seems to me that 200mhz core and 210mhz memory clock is quite stable.
anyone tried any higher?

Cheap cards doesn't have temperature telling!

Get Asus, Elsa or Leadtek!

And I think your card will be 50C!

Actually put a thin metal plate on top of the gpu and connect that metal plate with a thermometer! (that cost less)

what do you consider "much"?

just a thought..........

once you get to a point where fans won't help you will need watercooling.....and that's what i will do

Well Watercooling ain't essential for cheap Gfx card!

but.....i might do watercool for my card if i get the $$ to do it
