How do I detect my GPU temp with a BFG 6600GT OC?

[GoingUp]

I have the 128mb AGP version of this card.

I have the latest drivers from NVIDIA, but when I go into the display properties, there is no temp reading at all. I called BFG and they said that those cards don't have a sensor. I have read of other people on the web with the same card who have been getting a temp reading. Can anyone confirm?

Any tips on how to find out the temp of my GPU?

Have you tried installing NVTweak?

There is other threads i have added info to, the 6600 GT does have sensor in GPU, thats Nvidias part not BFG's but not sure card supports for BFG but on others a simple bios flash sorts.

You will need search back a max of 2 weeks for info.
