I probably asked about it before, but since I apparently have an Alzheimer moment, I'll ask again : what program do you use to follow the temperature of your graphic card? I use MSI Afterburner, but I'm sure there are several others, some that might be better.

I don't think there's really much reason to monitor temp other than during stress testing the initial build to be sure it is capable. For that I would use FurMark, I believe it records GPU temperature for you.

I've used EVGA Precision and MSI Afterburner. They both work and I consider them to be equivalents. The differences do not seem to be significant to me.

I put a passively cooled card in my main computer a few days ago and since there's not much ventilation in the lower part of that enclosure, I wanted to be sure it did not overheat.
