SiSoftware Sandra allows to look at CPU and motherboard temp, but not video card temp. Unless you attach a seperate temp sensor to the video card, I believe you cannot check its temp.

There are plenty of other free ones without having to go out and buy one.

The "watered-down" version was free. http://www.sisoftware.co.uk/index.ht...ation=sware_dl

The Pro version with all the bells and whistles costs $28

That's excellent. Now you can forget about monitoring the temperatures and enjoy the computer.
