    I've got a 260 GTX and I've also just downloaded Rivatuner. What other programs are out there to control the GFX fan?

    I had one previously and I cannot for the life of me remember the name of it altho not sure if it was radeon specific. The reason I liked it was because it had a tab where it opened a picture of a space ship and that maxxed out the GPU so you could see you heat vs fan speed stepping in action.

    I can't see anything like that in the current version of riva.

    Any suggestions very welcome.

    Cheers

    This new tool Afterburner is great, its developed by Msi and supports both Nvidia and Ati gpu's. They've even paid Unwinder (the guy who develops Rivatuner) and for his help, so its actually ended up better than Rivatunerbut v similar

    Is there anything like Windows 7 hybrid thingaling: in power schemes you can pick what method of cooling takes priority: Underclocking vs. Fanspeed. Better for laptops on battery, or when you dont want fan noise, to just have the CPU clock down.

    Seems to suggest it only supports MSI cards?
