How do I find out the temperature of my video card?

My computer turns off randomly and I think it's overheating. It's two years old and just your average laptop. I don't play games on it, at least not too often or too massive. I know that overheating is a possible explanation, and I am trying to monitor it to see if it the actual issue.|||the best pc monitoring program i know of is " everest " it will tell you anything about your pc , some things you never heard of even. here is a link to a free d/load ,, http://www.majorgeeks.com/download4181.h…|||hi,

overheating may be the reason, if it is, you can download SpeedFan to check your CPU temperature and and motherboard temperature. cpu shudnt exceed 50-60 degrees Celsius if your system isnt doing anything.

Your Video cards temperature can be viewed(depending on the make)

through forceware programs such as, NTune(nvidia) and i think ATI's is called Catalyst ... hope this helps.

have a good one.|||Lol, ok. Only if it has a temperature sensor. So try this, GPU-Z.

open the program, and check out, the sensors tab.



For the CPU, use RealTemp.

A fan may have failed on you. Not quite as easy to fix as those big ol' desktops.|||Your laptop probably does not have a graphics card but has a graphics chip.



Go to your CPU maker's web site and download the free utility to monitor your system.|||Nope...only by using a heat measuring meter.



Check your processor fan. apply some heat sink paste between the processor and heat sink
