On Windows 7 there is a nice gadget called GPU monitor, allowing the temp to be placed on your desktop. Very practical, even more when having a second monitor.
You can find them when right click on desktop, Gadget, then look for more online.
On the page that pops up it should be.
Also shows how much of VRAM of the GPU is used in percentage (not very reliable as it somehow doesnt show the same numbers as Octane), how much of the GPU's processor is being used and how fast the fan is spinning.
For OSX i use iStat Menus. When installing its located on the menu bar, hence always visible via a dropdown menu.
Rampage III Extreme - 990x - 24GB - Quadro 4000 (display), triple GTX 580 (Octane) - CPU & GPU's cooled with Antec 620's - DIY 15" Cintiq
