Bit pointless, you need to see the temperature in game really...

You can use rivatuner for this, guide here

It's not pointless, for example BOINC can use the GPU to aid in distributed computing tasks.

A quick search of the official site revealed this, which funnily enough needs RivaTuner to run!

Yeh soz, I mean for games. bit of a hassle to be minimising to check temperatures unless it logs them.
