I'm exchanging my xfx 8800gs tomorrow at newegg for a new card. I am learning towards a 4850. Do other brands besides Asus allow you to adjust the fan speed? Thanks in advance!
Well, all brands allow you to adjust the fan speed with the help of RivaTuner. It's a program that lets you overclock your video card and adjust the fan speed on any graphics card.
You can adjust the fan speed within the Catalyst Control Center:
Open CCC
Go to ATI Overdrive and unlock
Go to Profiles and save profile
Go to "C:\Documents and Settings\YOURLOGINNAME\Local Settings\Application Data\ATI\ACE"
Edit XML file with the profile name you saved
Adjust these settings:
I was under the impression that the temps for this card were really high, because the fan speeds, besides the asus model, could not be changed. What % speed is the fan at stock that leads to the 80-90*C load temps?
