ki11a Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 Ive Looked EVERYWHERE for a program that lets me set my nvidia video card's fan setting high when performing higher end 3d...Rivatuner used to have it but I guess it only has that feature on the XP version...I have also tried ATI tool with no success. Does anyone know a proggie that will do this for me? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
12Iceman Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 I am using RivaTuner under Vista to control the speed of the fan on my 8800 GTS. Have you tried the most recent version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ki11a Posted July 4, 2007 Author Share Posted July 4, 2007 Yes Im using the most recent version 2.02 As I remember correctly the fan speed should be next to the overclocking tab... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
12Iceman Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 The problem is that you are in the wrong area of the program. I believe the picture I posted below is pretty self explanitory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Budious Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 You are using Riva Tuner, I believe the fan checkbox is found on the CoolBits control panel of the nvidia driver if you have applied the correct registry entry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where is the CoolBits control panel? Edit, I found the coolbits reg download and applied it, But now where do I go from that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

x-scratch Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 my 8600gt fan only comes on during boot up i never changed a thing it stays cool in the mid 40s mid 50s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
echo Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 u can use nvidia nTune to set the fan speed to 100%. I'm using it in vista ultimate x64 and it's working fine. I also oc'd my card with it. it does't have all the other options as rivatuner or coolbits, but it doesn't the job. you have to go into advanced settings where it'll ask you to accept another set of "warnings" then you can access the settings to of the fan and the clock speed.

gendi Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 another one for nTune, i use it on Vista Ultimate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HellboundIRL Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 In rivatuner make sure that you've got the right graphics/monitor selected from the drop down menu, I can't access my fan control if its set to the wrong one, I just get the same menu as you.
