I got GeForce4 Ti4200 128Mb (i really don't think this type of card is old) and i would like to overclock it a bit (10-15% if it's stable) but i don't know the temp of my card. Can you gibve me a link for downloading such program because i can't feel the temperature with my fingers then i put em near the cooler of a card or near the card. Can anybody help me ?

NOTE: Is that true that Ti type cards can be very overclockable ?

There is no progra for VGA temps. You have to use a physical sensor.

When you overclock, only boost the speeds 5% or less at a time to be safe. You may get freezes or artifacts (many lines criss-crossing the screen) if it overheats.

Generally speaking, yes. Check out Jakk's article on overclocking video cards:
