    Re: Will HD 6950 2GB Fit My Case?

    Yeah its to be expected with more monitors/higher res,you can manually set a fan percentage,my 5770 is just right at 50% fan speed and silent,yet my 5870 runs cooler if I leave it on auto fan speed,so you would need to test that,one thing you can do is add a 120mm or 140mm silent fan in the top and or side panel door to suck in cool air and exhaust hot air through and across your gpu and then up and out of the case,that might help temps,my cards run hot 70-74c when running games anyway and idle between 32-36c

      "you can manually set a fan percentage"

      I was looking at that. Which software do you use to tweak GPU settings? I have Asus Smart Doctor and AMD Catalyst Control Center. Not sure which one is safest to use. Do you just set the fan at 50% and leave it there? I tried it and seemed a bit loud. Good idea about getting another case fan(s) to help cool hardware.

        just amd ccc,the noise depends on your card,my 5870 is loud if i set to 50% but my 5770 isnt,plus the 5870 gets 2 to 3 degrees hotter if set to a fixed fan speed than if i leave it on auto
