Temperature of the video card is the main indicator that needs to be monitored throughout the device. If you neglect by this rule, you can get overheating with a graphics chip that can entail not only unstable work, but also failure is a very checked video adapter.
Today we will discuss ways to observe the temperature of the video card, both software and those where additional equipment are required.
Method 2: Pyrometer
Not all components on the video card circuit card are equipped with a sensor. These are memory chips and the power subsystem. At the same time, these nodes also have a property to highlight quite a lot of heat under load, especially when overclocking.
