Im off to uni in a week and as a result im frantically dling everything i can think of to keep me busy there(daytimes can be boring when you dont have a lecture, but everone else does). As a result im leaving my PC on over night. The only problem is my PC likes to immitate something with rotorblades taking off. Iv changed all my 80mm fans to those Sharkoon golf balls ones which work a treat, however the GPU fan is the main problem. When i go to sleep i turn both my screens off(dual screen goodness) and so it seems the GPU is pritty much unneeded, yet the fan still spins at warp factor throughout the night. Is there any way i can disable the fan when i go to sleep, then enable it the next day when i want to load up a game without dammaging the rather expensive bit of silicon it sits on?
Its a 7900GT, with one of those stupid little hyperactive fans underneath it.
cheers guys.
