New EVGA Precision 2.0 (http://www.evga.com/precision/) available. About to try it out, but it has some of the things I've been wanting, to see temps in system tray or in-app or on my LCD screen of my keyboard.

Has some other features too, worth checking out.

Cut-and-pasted from their site:

Independent or Synchronous control for fan and clock settings in a multi-GPU system
Allows up to 10 profiles, and ability to assign hotkeys to these profiles to allow in-game
Ability to view temperatures in the system tray
Fan profiling system
Core/Shader Clock Link/Unlink capability
Fan Speed manual or auto adjustment
Real-Time on-screen display support for ingame temp, framerate, and clock monitoring
Logitech Keyboard LCD Display support
In-app temp/clockspeed monitoring of GPU's
Information button shows device, driver, memory size, BIOS Revision and SLI mode
Ability to choose different skins, and make your own!
Now you can save screenshots from your favorite games!

I thought it already did all of those things except the keyboard display and the screen shots. :shrug: I've use it to put temps in my sys tray since October. I'm always happy to see manufacturers keeping up the software updates though.

Oh, maybe it did and I didn't catch it. I like having that info in the system tray now. But it is nice that they're supporting/enhancing their tools for us.

I just started monitoring my GPU for the first time ever. But I'd say for me it's like CPU monitoring - once you know what it does what else is there to see? The rigs run 24/7 at 100% load, nothing's going to change, we hope! ;)

Well that's why we watch to see if it changes, i guess :)

I don't even run CoreTemp all the time and it's got a really small footprint. Don't want to use up precious clock cycles! ;)

It still takes X number of clock cycles to run the program, cycles which SETI isn't able to use.

Now, if you want to say 100 RAC isn't as important now as it was then, I might be able to see that.
