100C is water boiling pont = very very hot! It will die on u in the short time! U must cool it down first.
Try HWMonitor @

Sorry, allow me to clarify why I was relieved by my results.
Just the other day, I obtained a copy of a Starship Troopers first-person shooter released back in 2005. It was created using the SWARM engine, designed to allow hundreds (or even thousands) of enemy AI to be processed simultaneously without killing the processor, but the rendering portion of the engine had been left poorly optimized, so even with a 5-year-old game, having significant demand on the GPU isn't unusual. With the updated drivers left over from trying to run Metro 2033, when I checked the GPU core temperatures every 5-10 minutes, nearly every time it was in the high 90s or slightly over 100. With the older drivers I installed to rectify this, I played 2 sessions of continuous 2-hour play in this same game. Of the two sessions, only the second had a period that passed the 100 degree mark, and that was just for a period of about 5 minutes halfway through the session. Interestingly, the temperature graphs in both 2-hour sessions took the same shape, increasing steadily for the first hour of play and decreasing steadily for the second hour.
I'm not saying I'm happy the temperature ever got that high, but the stark contrast between the core temperature patterns between the new and old drivers tell me that I can probably play Team Fortress 2 again without worrying about heat-related crashes. I am completely serious, that actually did happen once with Team Fortress 2 on a computer using two NVidia GeForce 9800 GT cards with SLI enabled, and I used to play that game for hours without a problem. Still, I'd like a GPU core monitoring program to try and find a correlation between the high-temperature periods and the objects being rendered during those times. I won't have access to my desktop for a few hours and I can't tell from the given information whether hwmonitor or hwinfo32 are what I'm looking for, so I'll get back to you on that later.
