for the temps it either says it somewhere in the drivers or try using motherboard monitor 5.
to oc it:
start>run>regedit>browse to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\NVIDIA Corporation\Global\NVTweak
and right click the blank area on right> click new dword vaule:
name: coolbits
value: 3
then when u want to OC the card right click desktop>properties>settings>advanced>click the geforce fx 5600 tab at the top>then on left side click clock frequencies and off you go.

but what does that do?

i see everything you mean but there is no clock frequencies in that menu?
can see anything about graphics cards in MBM5
B)
the clock frequencies is hidden until you do that registry tweak...
i get it now, i can overclock, now i just need to know how to see my GFX card temps
Unless your card has it's own temp display (like ATI's Overdrive) then I don't know how you can read temps from software.
MBM5 won't do it.
how do i find out if it has a sensor?Quote:

find anything?
What about on my uber PCI GeForce4 MX 4000? :lol:
I don't know about nVidia cards, but the ATI sensor is accessable by going to ControlPanel>Display>Overdrive.
It would seem reasonable to expect your card to have something similar, but I don't know for sure.
I seem to remember reading a bit about nVidia temp display script in the MBM5 forums...perhaps a search there would help.
