Hello all...

I have an AGP variant of the ATI Radeon X1300 graphics adapter in a Dell
Dimension 8300. I've noticed that this card can automatically vary its fan
speed depending upon how hot the GPU is.

I've also noticed that many nVidia cards can have their temperatures
reported by software utilities such as SpeedFan.

I'd like to do the same with the ATI card that I have. Is there a software
tool that can report on these parameters, preferably one where I could have
a warning pop up if the fan were to stop? (SpeedFan does not seem to support
ATI video cards as well as nVidia ones.)
