You can now check GDDR7 memory temps on GeForce RTX 50 Series GPUs per module thanks to the work of modders

Q: Do the per-module memory temperature readings include GDDR7 on GeForce RTX 50 Series cards?

Yes. The mod by the Brazilian Paulo Gomes team expands per-module memory temperature readings to cover GDDR6, GDDR6X, and the new GDDR7 used on GeForce RTX 50 Series cards. However, there is nuance in some configurations: for example, the GeForce RTX 5090 has 16 memory packages but only eight measurement points that cover paired GDDR7 modules.

Q: Why do RTX 5090 cards report only eight measurement points for 16 memory packages?

Because the mod reads memory temperatures mapped via MMIO that correspond to paired GDDR7 modules, the RTX 5090's 16 physical memory packages are presented as eight measurement points covering those pairs. The mod team mapped sensors to physical modules, so each measurement point represents a pair of GDDR7 packages.

Q: Can the new memory module temperature data help diagnose thermal pad contact issues?

Yes. The article says the per-module memory temperature readings added by the modders let you spot some memory modules running hotter than others and can help determine issues related to thermal pad contact. It notes the readings cover GDDR6, GDDR6X, and GDDR7 and are available in the latest HWiNFO beta, but also warns the data is unofficial and has some nuance due to different memory configurations.

Thanks to a team of Brazilian modders you can now monitor GDDR6, GDDR6X, and even GDDR7 memory module temps on GeForce RTX graphics cards.

TL;DR: Brazilian modders led by Paulo Gomes enabled per-module memory temperature reads on GeForce RTX cards by accessing MMIO, letting tools like HWiNFO and an MSI Afterburner plugin report individual GDDR6, GDDR6X, and GDDR7 module temps. Readings are unofficial, may vary by GPU memory layout, and aid troubleshooting.

When it comes to GPU monitoring, one of the biggest stories in recent weeks has been third parties restoring GPU Hotspot temperature readings on GeForce RTX 50 Series cards. Although unofficial, the consensus is that these readings can be beneficial in troubleshooting issues relating to cooling and performance, which is why tools like HWiNFO have now added this feature.

This week we've got another revelation for GeForce RTX monitoring, this time related to GPU memory. Thanks to the Brazilian Paulo Gomes mod team, who discovered a way to read temperature data on individual memory modules by accessing memory-mapped I/O (MMIO), which can then be mapped to physical modules surrounding the GPU die. According to the team, current memory temperature readings always show the current hotspot reading; this new mod expands this to cover individual modules.

And the good news is that this covers GDDR6, GDDR6X, and the new GDDR7 memory found on the GeForce RTX 50 Series. With the new mod, the latest HWiNFO beta includes these readings alongside the Hotspot.dll plugin for MSI Afterburner from Asder00. However, due to the different memory configurations, there is some nuance to the data. For GeForce RTX 5090 GPUs, it has 16 memory packages, but you've only got eight measurement points covering paired GDDR7 modules.

Ultimately, like the GPU Hotspot temperature reading, this is unofficial stuff and something new, as there's no NVIDIA documentation covering all of the thermal sensors associated with GeForce RTX 50 Series memory. But, like with GPU Hotspot temperature readings, getting access to more temperature data is a good thing for troubleshooting issues related to some memory modules running hotter than others or determining issues related to thermal pad contact.
