According to gkrellm, my GPU is at 24C. CPU is at 31C. Will check it after running a few 3D heavy apps later tonight. > > Is there any way I can monitor what is using the GPU, to find out? > > I don't know if there's a utility for consumer level cards that can do > this.

Surprisingly, some desktop apps (not all) are also showing, must be linked to some library. Also shows the GPU memory usage. -- Joost
