How to measure those temps?

I use one of three methods,

First is place a thermal probe (DigitalDoc or compunurse, or extra mobo thermal temp probe) On the back of the card.

The second is more complicated, with a dremmel you make a tiny channel on the bottom of the video card's heatsink drilled just deep enough to fit the 'bulb' or flat probe heat so that it rests on the GPU. Also place a little thermal paste in the channel.

Last method is if you have a large gpu cooler like the Alpha pal 15u, you can drill a small hole on the heatsink and place the probe in it.(I recommmend you fill the hole with Arctic Silver thermal adhesive so the probes results are fairly accurate and that the probe doesnt work its way loose.

Some video cards include hardware monitoring, but this usually only works when you use the default drivers included with your card... and who uses those :P ?!!

Thanks fot that information...

Would the second (more complicated) one be the most accurate one?
