Just installed Sapphire Radeon x1650 pro agp card. Both ATI tool and Riva Tuner will not register card temps and fan speeds. Have catalyst version 6.14. Is catalyst causing problem or could something be wrong with the card? Replaced a Sapphire x800 GTO that went bad. Always had fan control and temp info with that card.

Downloaded gpu z. Did not show temp or fan speed. Is it possible there is no monitoring chip on the x1650 pro?

Does the X1650 even have a temperature sensor?

Nope. The RV535 does though but for some manufacturers it was better to leave it inactive.

Any idea which sapphire agp cards have the LM63 monitoring chip for temp and fan control?

You could check the PCB for monitoring chips, if you're up to it. It's possible you're just stuck with a basic video card without any GPU/fan monitoring abilities.

If you haven't done this already: Make sure you enable all the plugins Rivatuner has. With the monitoring window open, click on Setup in the bottom right. In the Hardware monitoring setup window, click on Plugins, at the bottom left. In the Active plugin modules window put a checkmark next to all of the .dlls and click Ok. With any luck you might see your GPU temps and fan speeds.

If not, try some other programs like: Ati Tray Tools, Everest, Speedfan, Furmark, HWMonitor, and HWInfo32.

Good luck!
