I don't know that I'm overheating... I don't think that I am. I have a temperature monitor on it and it isn't that hot.
 
its not overheating..
To the touch it isn't getting hot at all

it could be overheating but i dont think so, 6200 werent meant for OCing lol go run and get yourself a 6600GT :D
 
I can't find where to check the temps in rivatuner... still working on it I thought unlocking the 4 pipes theoretically turned my 6200 into a 6600 (?)
 
In the "main" tab of Rivaturner, go to the topmost "Customize" and click on it. Go 5 boxes over and click on "Hardware Monitoring."

It should give you the temps. But these will be the Idle temps, you need to run 3DMark to get the load temps.

I guess you could say that. Stock speed on a 6600 is 300/500 and has 64-bit memory interface as well as the 6200.
 
I followed these instructions for temp monitoring in Rivatuner:

6- Go to the "Power user" tab.
7- Expand \Monitoring.
8- Click on the left side of "BackgroundMonitoring".
9- Double click on the right side of "BackgroundMonitoring" on the darker area.
10- Enter 1.
11- Expand \Core Temperature.
12- Click on the left side of "ShowInIcon".
13- Double click on the right side of ShowInIcon.
14- Enter 1.
15- Click OK

I still can't find where to view the temps???

I did that and it only gives me 3 things it's monitoring... Core Clock, Memory Clock, and Core VID, and they are all in Mhz.

I'm starting to think that my card isn't a new enough model (though I just bought it a few weeks ago) to put out temperatures.
