Default ati radeon 9800 pro temp??

Does this card have a temp finder on it? i have the 128 version.. I downloaded ATI TOOL but i dont see a temp thing anywhere.

Anyways, if i dont have a built in temp for this then whats the cheepest way to get the temp? i would just get a thermometer and get the temp but once i open the case ect. the temp will either get lower because less hot air is around or hotter because the 'flow' is disrupted from the other fans( or will that work??).. My case doesnt have very good cooling tho..

you have to tell ATItool to check the temperature, on the main screen click "settings" , then select "temperature monitoring" from the drop down menu, then choose your various options and it should begin showing you the temp on the main screen, it also shows the temp of the GPU when minimized, and you can see the min/max/average temp under the temperature monitoring settings...

You'll have to flash it with an XT bios to get the temperature monitoring activated in the drivers (if your running the 360 core that is).
