Temp Sensor for Radeon 9600 Pro?

RaveRod

I've recently upgraded my computer for the first time in about 4 years!

I've got my temperature sensor for the case, processor and that stuff but I'm wondering if it's possible to get a temperature reading from an ATI Radeon 9600 Pro card?

I don't think they come with a temp sensor and being in Brisbane, Australia, can anyone point me to where I may be able to buy a temp sensor I can add to my computer?

I used to have one that I could stick into heatsinks but the sensor part is stuffed.

Any ideas anyone?

In theory you can attach case sensor to the card with some sort of adhsive, and while it won't be 100% accurate, it would give you a good readin. That is if the case sensor is actually in the case, and not on the motherboard.

Otherwise a lot of online stores sell them, though I am not sure about availability of thereof to Brisbane, AU customers.

Hmm... that seems to be the problem. I can't seem to find just a temperature sensor at any of the stores in or around Brisy. Buying online would only be possible via pickup (which it why I'm limited to Brisy).

There are some front control panels with a temperature sensor attached that you can run to anywhere in the case but they're a little expensive considering I only want 1 sensor to monitor 1 PCI card... The control panels I've seen also come with fan controllers etc. which I don't need.
