507187 2006-12-18 04:43:00 For some reason I keep assuming nVidia cards run cooler....

pctek, so you would recommend me not use atitool at all? Do you know what clock speeds the card lowers to in idle mode?

Well the 6800 was considerably cooler. The X850XT is a hot card. So don't worry.

The ATI tool to what? Mess with fan speeds? NO I don't recommend you do that.

I hope you find your answers here. This card is so powerful, for more info please read the article. ;)
Sorry, I can't find where is the power consumption article anymore. It takes about 300W or something and Crossfire may need a very high PSU for power hungry card.

507191 2006-12-18 08:48:00 Wow....I guess ATi is hot. By the way, I think I may have overwritten the original BIOS of the X850XT PE's fan settings....I don't know if the fan settings are back to its original state if the atitool is not running.....

Can anybody tell me? I have my fan running at 32% above 75 degrees GPU.
