Thermal Grizzly releases 90-degree WireView Pro tool for measuring and monitoring GPU power

We covered Thermal Grizzly's WireView Pro GPU in detail late last year, as it includes internal and external temperature sensors for 12VHPWR 16-pin power connectors. The shift to a new power delivery system and flagship GPUs like the GeForce RTX 4090 and GeForce RTX 5090, which draw up to 450W and 600W on a single cable, led to Thermal Grizzly's developing the device.

An audible alarm not only allows users to monitor a GPU's power draw via the 16-pin power connector but also warns when temperatures reach a certain point to protect the graphics card from damage. Developed in collaboration with Elmor Labs founder and engineer Jon Sandstrom, the new 90-degree WireView Pro GPU offers a different cabled orientation, with the power supply cable router downward for GPUs installed horizontally.

There's also a sensor pin detection system to ensure the power from the power supply is connected correctly. As per the version released last year, an OLED display for real-time monitoring allows users to log and track power usage over time.

The OLED can display the temperature of the power connectors in degrees (Celcius) alongside the optional temperature sensors that can be placed on other parts of the GPU. It can also display the current power consumption in watts, voltage, and amperes, showing maximum, minimum, and average values over the past 60 seconds. As with the previous version, the 90-degree WireView Pro GPU only measures power and temperature from the 12VHPWR 16-pin power connectors, so any additional power being delivered to the GPU via PCIe slot will not be included in any of the readings.

The WireView Pro GPU and 90-degree WireView Pro GPU are both priced at $73.40 USD and available at Thermal Grizzly's official site (including shipping costs).
