Hello im new here, i got a question about my video card regarding its temperature while i am playing games.
I run 45% fan speed when just browsing the web or when im idling and when i start gaming (battlefield 3 etc) the temperature slowly goes up to 70 and then faster to 80 and 90.
when i run my fan speed at 60% or 65% the temperature stays at 69 or 70 and then REALLLYYY slowly goes up so thats not really them problem, my real problem is the noise that the fan makes. i already cleaned it from dust etc but when i put it on 60% it just makes a crap load of noise wich is rather anoying!
is it normal with the AMD Radeon 6870 HD for this to happen? the card is like 2 or 3 years old. i can put the fan speed to auto detect with the heat but thats not really an option...
so it it normal? do i need to get a new card? or is it just that the card is out dated and i need to upgrade?
thanks and im waiting for an answer D:!
