How do I view card temps with SLI?

[AndyBogard]

I just installed both my 7900GTs for SLI, but once I enabled it, the temperature monitor disappeared from the options. This is my first time using SLI. I'll list my motherboard and cards:

Asus A8N32-SLI
2 x EVGA 7900GT CO Superclocked

Do I have to monitor with a third party application? If so what one? Thanks in advance.

Do you mean the temp settings tab on the nvidia control panel dissapeared?

You should be able to view it within your nVidia control panel, its listed as "temperature"...if not then uninstall your display drivers and reinstall again...use driver cleaner if you got it after uninstalling to get rid of those "left behind files".

You can do it in the temperature monitor in the nvidia control panel.

There is even a drop down menu for gpu1 and gpu2 if you have SLI.

Sorry, I realized after I posted and was fighting with my computer to get things to work, that I didn't mention everything.

I had 1 7900GT already installed with the 84.21 drivers, then I powered down the computer and installed the 2nd 7900GT and then enabled SLI. Once I enabled SLI, the section "Temperature monitor" just vanished.

I took your advice and just reinstalled the drivers. Took me a while to get the computer working again, I was just fighting with the driver install for 2 hours. Was having problems with nv4_mini.sys. I figured it all out though and back with SLI. I now have "Temperature monitor" for both cards.

Thanks for the help guys.
