Hey guys,

Another quick question... where do I ground a multimeter on my PC to safely check voltage on the GPU? Thanks!
 
put the gound on the screw holding the video card to the pc (on the pci slot cover). also, be really really careful while probing with the (+) lead so as to not ground something out.

I stick the negative probe in one of the molex connectors off the PSU, on one of the black wire connections. But really any ground will work which means yes, like the above poster said, you can stick it in a screwhole on your chassis. I find using a free molex connector off the PSU ensures a good connection to ground.
