8800gts fan speed vs forum speed

This forum is slow like my fan. What can I do to speed up both?

Absolutely EXO. It is also dependent on going from 2D to 3D apps. Often, when you go from a 2D app to 3D app, such as a game, the fan will speed up, but if the temp stays cool or cools down the fan speed will decrease as well--my card(though not an 8800 nor PCIe) does this.  Your temps are also going to be dependent on Case airflow, the Case itself, and cabling.  One more option which you could include in your list would be to put a PCI slot fan below the Vid card to help draw more air across the video card.  I wouldn't concern yourself about a fan at low speed as long as the temps are fine(unless it doesn't run at full speed when you boot the machine--the drivers slow down the fan once they are loaded with Windows.
SpacionS, I didn't state a fix. I was pointing you where the problem may be. The slowness of the Forum may be in your machine(unlikely if other websites of similar types load fast) or the way your ISP is directing you to the server. You could be passing through a problematic node in one of you hops to get to the server.
Exo,Frankenputer, The cards' fan speed has not increased, not at start up, or playing stalker, coh, or supreme commander. One speed, slow. Is this normal? Case: Themaltake Tsunami :cabling: rounded and routed, fans: one 12cm intake, one 12cm exhaust, one 9cm side, one PSU 12cm fan.

  • Fan Speed on PNY 8800GT

    Hi I just bought a new 8800GT for my computer but have a problem. It runs a little hot, I downloaded a nTunes but it will not let me adjust the fan speed. Does anyone know a program to downloaded (preferably free) that will let me adjust the fan speed higher for my PNY 8800GT? If you know please could you tell me.

    In addition to Riva Tuner, I like to use lots of good, quiet, high quality, fans in addition to what is delivered on the componetry.  I never run hot...ever!  I am running dual video cards, a dual core AMD processor, three hard drives, two DVD drives, a combo floppy/reader, and a whole host of other goodies including a heat monitor with several sensors strategically placed in my case.  I have never been above 33 c.  I think I would definitely consider a cooler pointed straight at that card if, for no other reason, to extend its life.

  • Yoga 2 13 - Fan speed goes almost silent in tablet mode

    I find that the fan generates too much noise on my Yoga 2 13 (not pro), even when the laptop is completely idle.
    It seems that somehow the temperature threshold for triggering the fan is set a bit too low (same problem seen on the lenovo yoga first version)
    However, I noticed that when I fold my Yoga into tablet mode the fan goes almost silent (which is awesome).
    Am I the only one experiencing this issue ?
    Is there maybe a way to set the fan speed in laptop, tent and stand mode at the same speed as in tablet mode ?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Regards,
    Mat.

    I was going to reccomend you use the Notebook fan control program, and I went to go find you a link for it.  However, when searching for it, I discovered that the Notebook fan control program doesn't work for the yoga 2 13 although it does work for my yoga 13.  It seems to be because the yoga 2 13 only has one fan while the yoga 13 has two fans.  I'm not sure.
    The best bet for you is to search around on forums to see if anyone has discovered a different program that works.  I tried searching around but I couldn't find anything.

  • How can I control fan speeds in Win7 on a MBP-R for gaming?

    I have a MacBook Pro with Retina Display. It has had Windows 7 installed and I want to play some 3D action games. How do I stop internal parts from overheating? I intend to use a USB cooling pad but that'll do nothing if the internal fans remain at idle speed.
    The only Windows fan speed control utility I could find was the 4-year old SpeedFan which fails to detect the presence of any internal fans. I'm not impressed with the Windows community's failure to offer more and better than this tired old relic.
    So the questions remain:
    (1) Is the hardware still capable of automatically accelerating the fans as temperatures rise while gaming in Windows?
    (2) What In Windows forces the MBP-R to lock the nVidia GPU into continuous duty and ignores Intel GPU?
    (3) What control does the user have for (2)? 
    (4) How can I protect my MacBook Pro/Retina from overheating while playing PC games, apart from not playing games?

  • Satellite A100: looking for software to control the fan speed

    Hi,
    I'm looking for software to control/read out the fan speed of my laptop, because Power Saver does not seem to do anything. It does not seem to matter if i set the 'Cooling Method' to 'Battery Optimized' or 'Maximum Performance', or even the fixed CPU processing speed. I've (de)installed the Common Module & Power Saver a couple of times to no avail.
    Also SpeedFan & NHC do not work.

    Hi
    Sorry but I do not agree with your opinion about Power saver utility. Do you really believe that Toshiba create tool like this for nothing? Just for info: power saver utility is not available with Vista OS and on this forum you can find topics where people really missing this nice and useful utility.
    Anyway it is well known that many tools you can find on the internet have no much influence on notebook cooling fan speed. To be honest, something like that can be very dangerous because most users want to have silent notebooks and overheating issues are totally underestimated.
    Can you please be a little bit more specific about your problem? Is your notebook too loud for you or is battery running time to short? Why you are not satisfied with this tool?

  • MSI HD 7850 1GB GDDR5 OC edition Fan speed problem

    Hello all.
    I have some strange issue with my graphic card and fan i think. I have noticed that, when my monitor goes to sleep (or when I manually turn off), after few minutes (7-8-9-10) I can loudly hear GPU fan acceleration. And it happens every few minutes. So, everything is ok few minutes, and after that, again I can hear that annoying sound, the sound of accelerated fan. That happens only, but only when the monitor is switched off (whether it manually or automatically switched off).
    I bought this video just 2 months ago, as well as other components of the computer. So, everything is practically new.
    I have tested my graphic card with MSI Kombustor v. 2.4, and everything was fine. Temperatures, FPS, and all that stuf was fine.
    I've never had a problem in any game so far. Everything working fine on high details all kind of games. Temperatures are pretty
     normal. In a fact, I think that is temperature is lower than some average. I have a problem only with horizontal lines, but that is because i have monitor with VGA output. As a mather of fact, barely notice them. And, I have instaled latest 13.4 drivers. I deleted the old version with driver sweeper. And in an earlier version of driver was the same problem...
    Again, the problem arises when my monitor is off. I have tested with MSI Afterburner 2.2.5 beta and GPU-Z 0.7.0.
    All settings in both of programs are on default. So, that numbers at paragraph RMP, when monitor is off, max is 1563. That is 400 more than when monitor is on.
    I have tried to test when is minimum usage of GPU fan is 40% (i just clicked on "user define" button on the right side of "fan speed"), and then, RMP number would be 1700 or even more.
    When monitor is off:
    When monitor is on:
    So, everything is perfect when monitor is on, again. I don't think that is normal, and I beg for help. Is there any kind of solution to fix this problem? Please. I am thankful in advance. Sorry for my bad English.
    P.S.
    I wanted to upload pictures, but forum does not allow me. Or, I don't know how to do that. I only want to show values...

    Usualy, i left Opera, uTorrent, Skype in backround. Then, I shut down the programs, and only programs in background are Avast 8 and Realtek Audio Manager (both are in system tray). No matter if you leave a program in the background or not, it's the same.
    I really have never met with this type of problem and I have no idea how to fix that. If I complain to the seller, he would run tests like I did, and everything would be ok. And when  I would told him about the fan problem, probably would have told me that everything is okay...
    I don't know what to try, really...

  • Kernel_task high cpu usage, high fan speed, and low cpu tempterature

    Hi,
    I've noticed that a lot of people have been having trouble with the kernel_task process, but I couldn't quite find a situation similar to mine (most seem temperature related).
    Here is the situation (15' MBP, mid-2010):
    - on boot (while the apple logo is shown), the fans speed suddenly jumps, and stays there, even if the computer has been off for a while.
    - boot takes a little over a minute, which is considerably slower than what I was used to before today
    - when finally started-up, the activity monitors shows kernel_task using between 160-180% of the CPU!
    - temperatures are shown to be around 30C, except for the mem controller at 40C (still very low temp), but the fan speed is arround 6000rpm for both fans.
    - this happened out of nowhere, as I woke the mpb from sleep this morning.
    Since then I've tried:
    - multiple reboots
    - install all updates
    - uninstall flash player (some people where having trouble with that)
    - empty the system cache with Onyx (reported as a cause of slow boot)
    - reset PRAM
    - reset SMC
    - put some ice packs under the mpb to cool things even further!
    And so far, nothing has worked! I've had this laptop for 1 year, and nothing had ever failed. I upgraded to lion a few weeks ago, and everything had been working fine since the upgrade. This really happened out of nowhere, and none of the many forums I have read could offer a solution, and cals to apple support do not seem to yield better results (though I scheduled a call with them at 9am this morning, we'll see).
    Has anyone had a similar set of problems?
    I appreciate any help or advice you may have!
    Thanks!
    -Sebastien

    I have the same issue (2.66 2010 MBP Hi-Res Anti Glare.)
    I took it to Apple Store Covent Garden, JUST within warranty.
    18 days later my machine has a new Main Logic borad, heat sensors, top case, palm rest. etc.
    I turned it on.
    The fans kicked in. All processors at 50%, big ole kernal task.
    I took it back, geniuses rest SMC and tested it under load and it was fine.
    weirdly it failed diagnostics at first but then seemed fine
    I came home. Fans kicked in...
    I took it back. Diagnostics failed heat sensors again
    Replaced logic board and heats sensors again, but more carefully this time just in case, tested again.
    I took it home. FANS FANS FANS.
    Last time I was in the store I was told my machine was fine and had been thoroughly tested.
    In mac store, no fans.
    I erased hard drive and clean installed Lion
    FANS
    I replaced hard drive with OCZ SSD, clean LION.
    Fans
    Software update
    SMC
    PRAM
    permissions
    Onyx complete clean/maintenace
    FANS/CPU
    switched back to Snow Leopard SSD
    PRAM SMC ONYX etc.
    FANS/CPU
    replaced RAM, memtest-ed. fine, FANS
    gonna try again but up to nearly 2 months of all my spare time trying to shut this thing up so I can sell it.

  • Fan Speed will not adjust/Too Noisy

    I just installed my new MSI R6670 card.  This card was reviewed as being very quiet but I immediately thought just the opposite.  It sounds like the fans are running at 100% all the time overwhelming the sound of all other fans in my system.
    The CD came with AMD's 8.84 driver so instead I went ahead and downloaded the latest 11.6 and included catalyst control center.  CCC acted like it was adjusting the fan speed but there was no change in sound - like the fans were still running at full speed even though it said they were not.  So I uninstalled CCC but left the 11.6 driver in place and installed MSI's Afterburner software.  In the left hand pane it claimed the speed was set to Auto and currently at 44%.  But in the hardware monitor section it lists the speed as 0% with occasional blips but mostly staying at zero.  Turning off auto control and dragging the fan speed slider all the way to the slow side and clicking "apply" seems to have no impact on the sound and the hardware monitor keeps reading zero.  Its showing the temperature at a steady 39 which doesn't seem excessive.  Its looking to me like the software may not be able to monitor the fan speed so its just staying at 100% all the time.
    Please help!  I bought this card because the Radeon 6670 was supposed to be the most powerful card that would run without its own PCIe power cable and also because the reviews said it was very quiet.  Right now it is anything but quiet!

    I just pulled the card and disconnected the wire.  They are definitely 4 wire fans.  FYI Afterburner is crap as far as telling you what the fan speed is.  When I put the card back in I left the wire disconnected and briefly started the system with the card running fanless.  Afterburner still showed the fan speed as whatever the it was SUPPOSED to be running and showed the speed increasing with temperature, even though the actual fan speed was zero.  So their software isn't even actually monitoring the speed.  It is just telling you what the fan speed should be not what it is.  Going through the threads on this forum, I'm seeing several others with different models of MSI cards having this same problem.

  • Fan speed gets faster when i charge my macbook

    hi guys.
    Actually, i am an user of MacBook Air(2010 late) though,
    the reason i'm asking you of my problem here is just this section has much more users than Air section.
    Anyway, i have a problem. i think this phenomenon occured to my laptop these days and the problem is literally same with the subject.
    Fan speed gets faster when i charge my macbook air!
    There's no more process or something in charging, totally in same environment!
    I'm assuming that the charger has a problem like over-voltage..but i'm ignorant of this so.. just it's my guess.
    please help me!
    OS X Lion is installed.
    thanks guys!

    More heat is generated by the charging system while the battery is being charged than when it is already fully charged and charging has automatically stopped. More heat means more fan activity, so it sounds to me as though what you're seeing is to be expected. However, other users of MBAs would know better than I do just how much of a temperature and fan-speed difference is normal, so I hope you will repost in the proper forum and get some responses there. MBAs and MBPs are quite different.

  • Fan Speed ( RPM ) Istat Pro

    Hi, Have a new macbook, and im running istat pro in dashboard, if anyone is using istat pro as well , can you please post your exhaust fan speed here, mine always runs between 1903-2003 rpms. I just want to compare speeds and make sure my unit is not running hot all the time! Thanks in advance!

    Mine is sitting on exactly 2000 rpm right now just browsing this forum. I cannot hear it at all. Do some video encoding and you will see it get up in the 5000 rpm range. Even at that speed, it is no where near as loud as most PC laptops.

  • My MBP temperature and fan speed

    Hi,
    My problem is that my MBP seems to be getting rather hot (the F panel at the top, and underneath in particular).
    I used to notice when I used skype video that the fans spun a little faster and it seemed to keep my MBP at reasonable temperatures. But recently its getting very hot (almost untouchable) and the fans aren't spinning faster to offput the higher temperatures.
    I installed smcFanControl2 and it showed my fans running at 1000 rpm while my CPU temperature was about 62 degrees Celsius. I've looked around the forums here and most people seem to be reporting a normal idle speed of about 2000 rpm, so thats the first thing that struck me as odd, as I'm not even using any particularly CPU intensive apps. I used Activity Monitor to check.
    I then used smcFanControl2 to up my fan speed to 4000, and it ducked underneath 50 degrees celsius, so I reduced the fan speed back to 2060 (couldn't select exactly 2000) and now its running at about 53 degrees (I'm running system profiler, console, skim, textedit, itunes, mail, and finder right now). This seems to be a much more normal temperature, and I can barely even hear the fans.
    *Now my question:*(thanks for sticking with me so far): Shouldn't my MBP automatically have upped the fan speeds to keep my CPU temperature at a reasonable 50 degrees or so? Or is the cutoff point higher and I've just never noticed before? Also, is there a program (like smcFanControl2) perhaps that I can use to set a particular temperature I want to keep my MBP at and it will automatically set the fan speed to keep it at that temp?
    NB, I recently swapped my 1 GB of Apple memory for 2 GB of Crucial memory. I'm assuming this might have bumped the temperatures up a little bit but I definitely found my MBP was warmer than usual even before the upgrade.
    Thanks for any replies!

    sternkanz,
    In general, the upper operating limit for all Macbook Pros is in the 80-90 C range. In other words, the cut-off point is higher than you think, and you just haven't noticed it. The EFI firmware and PMU is designed to managed the fans such that 80-85 C is about as hot as the CPU gets, but of course, they (the fans) ramp up a bit earlier and slightly higher temps are not just possible, but common.
    Adding the additional memory may be a contributing factor, but not by much. Certainly, having a second DIMM in place moves the heat being produced by the RAM (considerable, BTW) closer to the bottom of the Macbook Pro's case, and therefore adds to the heat you'll feel underneath. And, just having more RAM will marginally increase the amount of power your Macbook Pro uses; more power equals more heat.
    In the end, this is all normal, and I don't see that you have anything to worry about.

  • GT70 Dragon Edition 2: Fan speed/heat issue

    I have a problem with the fan speed on my GT70. The CPU and GPU gets hot (between 75-80 degrees celsius)  but the fan does not speed up, while playing Fallout New Vegas. The fan speed is very low and makes no noise.
    It does speed up when I play Metro Last Light (obviously more demanding game). I suppose the problem is with the CPU fan speed tables. 
    Is there any way to lower or set the desired/target temperature so the fan will speed up faster and keep the CPU and GPU temp lower?
    I have already updated the firmware.

    This is a tool made by a Notebook Review user named Dave Pearson.  All thanks go to him and his hard work.  I suggest more of you head over to Notebook Review website and check out the forums over there.  There you will find your answers more quickly as there is a wealth of knowledgeable users and a community that works together to solve these issues. 
    http://www20.zippyshare.com/v/9165715/file.html
    This tool will allow you to control the speed of the fan.  This also works on the GT60s. 

  • Dell Vostro 1400 fan speed

    I am not able to get lm_sensors to detect the fan speed, so I installed i8kmon and i8kutils and modprobe i8k force=1 to load the module.
    Now the sensor applet tells me that my fan speed for Fan1 is around 27000 RPM and for Fan2 it's around 10000 RPM, while both cores of the CPU are around 50 C.
    I've never thought of monitoring fan speed until today, but the figures just seem way too great...
    I guess I am not doing it the right way. Any suggestions?

    I have loaded this driver and added the newid=0x14e4 0x1713 but still
    no luck. Still can not ping the Zenworks server or do anything. The
    Network lights stay lit when it tries to obtain an IP address for eth0.
    I read on another site that you need to update the initrd with the new

  • Lacie 500GB External Hard Drive Fan speed / heat issues?

    I have a 500gb Lacie Mini hard drive with the 1394/usb2.0 hub and for some reason when it is connected to my mac mini in the office, it works totally fine, doesnt spin really fast or anything. When I take it home and hook it up to my other mac mini, after 10-15 minutes the fan starts to blow at full speed on the Lacie. The mac mini at home is from March 2005 and its a 1.66 Core Duo, and the one at the office is from March 2007, and is also a 1.66 Core Duo, both with 2gb of ram.
    I have noted at the bottom of my home mac mini is very warm to the touch after feeling between the drive and the computer, but it seems odd to me that both computers dont get just as hot considering they are virtually identical aside from the build date. Has anyone else experienced this problem with their Lacie mini drive? The fan spins so high on the drive that its annoying to even use it, and I'd like to take care of it if theres a remedy.
    Thanks!

    I agree, the link you posted is strangely inaccurate. I have been trying to post the attempts on this link: http://www.123macmini.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=109630#109630 but as you can tell I have been frustrated with the whole process. The posts may be confusing because they are step by step. The lacie drive is loud under the mini but not when it is by itself.
    As of now the test seem to be inconclusive. It is so strange that I would be convinced if someone told me the fan in the lacie has a temperature sensor inside. But the only thing I can come up with is that the mini gets hot on the bottom, while the lacie gets hot on top. Their combined heat seems to be too much for the lacie's fan to cool. I will also mention that I have fan control software installed on the mini, but this doesn't seem to have any effect as I am not changing the settings during my tests.
    The fan having a temperature sensor is just crazy... I removed the fan from the lacie (fan still plugged in) and set up the stack. The lacie bottom was removed for this test. The lacie fan never turned on, and the drive increased in temperature that I felt was too hot. This is where sensing strips would assist in further data.
    So here is my next step: Since the fan didn't turn on when the lacie bottom was removed, it seems that the open back and open bottom (the back and bottom is one piece) was enough to keep the sensor from turning on the fan. But as said before, I felt the drive was still too hot. So maybe the lacie case needs more ventilation. Two ways I have thought to do this:
    ----- cut the fan one large hole instead of a bunch of little ones, allowing more air out.
    - or -
    ----- cut the bottom vents out (maybe not all of them) to allow more air intake.
    I think the first one would solve the problem, but I don't currently have the time to do it. I am going to cut the fan hole first, once I get the time.
    I will tell you that the lacie drive is mounted closest to the top of the case. I have thought of purchasing some thermal sensing strips to determine what is hot and when; haven't yet.
    AndyO, you said everything right except one part... the mini's air-intake is the vents on the bottom, and the air is obviously pushed out the back by the horizontal fan (there is a special plastic mold that the fan sits horizontally in). Which you would lead us to believe that the mini would heat up with the lacie underneath, but I haven't noticed any drastic changes in the mini fan speed or temperature. Instead the lacie drive gets hot or at least the fan goes crazy.
    Hope this helps, I'll let you know when I get the scalpel (really sharp knife) out.
