I use ATI Tool, lets you adjust the fan speeds as well :)

cool thanks
Whats a good temperature range for the gpu in idle and load
ATi tool is an ultimate I found for my 9800 Pro... that's like a mandatory install when I reinstall WinXP once in a while... since I have an Artic Silencer on my 9800 I can overclock it hiiiiiiiigh
I have a connet3D 850 XT PE, idle temp is 42c at the moment. Load, I have never seen it above 72c, that's while playing BF2 with the stock cooler.Quote:

if that is the default setting surely that means its safe though?
Well I got a message box up telling me that the GPU had been under clocked to prevent damage before I was using ATI Tool. Although that was on one of those really hot days we had. Since using it, i've had no problems at all like that.Quote:

40-42C idle is quite normal for ATI cards, and around 60C at load. I'd start to worry 70C+
