Gainward 6600 bios needed for fan control

August 13th, 2006, 11:10 PM

Hi,

I got a Gainward Nvidia 6600 PCI-EX 16 256mb graphics card. The original fan is very loud compared to other components on my system which makes it a pain in the head.

The expertool including latest ones has no effect on fan speed, although I can modify on screen, physically no change can be heard / seen...

I could manage to stop the fan using Rivatuner... But when I play 3d games the core goes to up 120C. Therefore I do not want to risk the card. I can not slowdown the fan even with the Rivatuner, either on or off...

Is there any bioses for this graphics card to enable fan speed control by rpm ?
The company support is terrible , I can not believe they have such a dump web site!!!

By the way my AMD 3200+ cpu fan is off generally, even when playing it does not goes more then 55C then the bios turns the fan on... Practically you do not need a nofan cpu cooler with FEEL HURRICANE cases !! Boy this ROCKS!!!!

Pease help about the bios issue, thanks...
