260 GTX: only 900 rpm @ 77° C! Bug or feature?
After installing the 180.48's for my XFX 260 GTX XXX I did some benchmarking while monitoring with gpu-z. In 2D it's working at 40% i.e. 742 rpm.
Now I used the crysis benchmark at 1600x1200, AA 4x, erverything High, aver. 33 fps. After 15 minutes gpu-z showed 77° C but the fan speed worked surprisingly for me at 48%/ 906 rpm! Is this normal or is the fan running at too low speeds? Or is my card faulty? I remember older drivers, where the fanspeed was much higher at about 1100 rpm when stressed. |

It sounds a little low to me ,but if you are just getting 77c with Crysis then it's not bad.I use rivatuner and just set my fan speed at 60% and it keeps it under 70c with my GTX 280's.But my fan speed is around 1950rpm's.

Could You please tell me Your fan speed while stress without rivatuner? Update: Maybe it's just a misreading of gpu-z 0.2.7. I've been repeating crysis bench 22 times in a loop at 1600x1200, AAx8, 37 FPS average. In addition my tv-card was playing. Again it sticked to 77° and about 900 rpm. Turning down sound and other fans I noticed that the fan of my vido-card was noticeable very clear now. I have to find a reliable fanspeed-tool now. |

Try Evga precision. Great tool and easy to use. Fan control works well with the 180.xx drivers too.

I'd run 70-75% for gaming with a decent OC. I could run a higher OC and I'd have to use the fan @ 100%. That's too darn much for my tastes.
