thanks, am using ATI tool now, using dynamic fan control

Above 0c = 31%
Above 70c = 39%
Above 75c = 48%
Above 80c = 57%
Above 85c = 68%
Above 90c = 79%
Above 95c = 88%
Above 100c = 100%

any comments and modifications? THanks in advance. I am using Sapphire HD3870, with stock fan.

who told you it's insufficient?
3870 will not die even the load temperature reach 95C.
so basically if you don't oc, your card most likely will be fine with default bios.

mine reach 100C for jst playing SUDEKI (fan speed set at fix 35)

Crysis, will reach 100C easily with the stock fan speed of 25-30

very hot card indeed.

I have tried ATI tool to set fan speed, auto fan speed wont work. Switch back to RIVA tunner and set it to Fix 40 for the moment.

anyone here can recommend the fix fan speed for Sapphire 3870?

set at least 60% fan speed when play games . 60% noisy is acceptable .
