Fan Club3d HD3870 OC (Overclocked)

Post by oostland »

Hi All,


Dont know if this is mention before in topics.


But i got a problem i got the card that i mention above, the fan runs on 100%, is there a easy way to get this card running on 30 or 40% (fanspeed) i am not overclocking yet so i dont need the noise atm..

And i have readed about a bios flash ? but i really dont want to get my card blown up.. please help me with this problem


Thx

if you use riva tuner, you can set the fan to whatever you want, but i'm surprised that it's on 100% all the time, are you assuming its on 100% because how loud it is, or do you KNOW its set at that, because highest-end cards are very loud generally to begin with

No this card is known because of this bug.

Atitool and rivatuner dont work they dont see any fan :shock:

hoping for a easy fix

They say they keep it on 100% because its overclocked
