Hi,
I'm playing some demanding games on a i7 desktop with NVidia GeForce 8800 GTS. This card has the reputation of showing high temperature curves, even in idle state it easily goes over 70°-75°.
If I use the default settings of the card straight away, the GPU temperature goes up over 90° really fast, hitting 98° or even 99°. If I switch on the "Software-controlled" fan activity (in the Fan tab), without doing any other adjustments, the temperature during all the game remains well below 90°, I had a max of 86°.
So, the Auto Fan Control must be damn good, is that so? The less average temperature my card will produce, the longer its lifetime, or do I miss something? Maybe the increased fan activity will reduce the card's lifetime?
Thanks for your comments!
