    Monitor GPU Temp in WoW

    I used to use MSI Afterburner to monitor my GPU temp in games, but WoW doesn't seem to let me do that. I kind of like to check my temperature constantly and not having it in game makes for a hassle to keep alt-tabbing to check what its at.

    Does anyone have any GPU monitoring tools that work in-game for WoW x64?

    I use AID64 and a CrystalFontz USB LCD screen.
    It is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion. It is by the beans of Java that thoughts acquire speed, the hands acquire shakes, the shakes become a warning.

    PlayClaw works with the 64 bit client as far as I remember.

    GPU-Z > all tools including MSI AB crap.

    http://tpucdn.com/gpuz/screen2.gif <- How it looks in the sensors tab

    It's also displaying the most information of a graphics card compared to AB/aida whatever and a logging tool to log temps/clocks/usage to a file.

    Launch wow via "wow.exe", not "world of warcraft launcher".

    This should make MSI afterburner show up.

    You are running x86 mode, he wants to run in 64bit.

    You're using 32 bit (x86). We know it works with this. He wants something to work with 64.

    OP - I just reverted to 32. I personally dont see much performance difference.

    Just so you know, the performance difference shows in 25man raids.
