    With my Asus I was tracking my GPU temp while gaming with RivaTuner (I'd go back and check temp history from a graph)...what is the best free program to use for my precision these days? I'm a little behind on this. thanks

    I did an hour and a half of gaming and the GPU never got over 75C...that seems unreal coming off my Asus C90s...Idles around 50-55...does this sound right?

    RivaTuner is still pretty good. HWMonitor and RivaTuner give the same temps for my GPU. Also with GPU-Z.

    I went back to A09 from A11....after 3 hours gaming I got ever so little bit of stuttering (no all the time) in intensive scenes but with A09 I got none. It came with A09 a week ago. That was reason enough to go back. Temps remained the same. Anyone else?
