Okay, I don't over clock, and such, I have a radeon x1600PRO agp (256mb, 500core, 450 mem) with the fan constantly at 100% (using ATI tray tools) its about around 40-50 degrees Celsius. Is it fine for me to let the fan 100% constantly , all the time, or should I immediatly stop this? I just did it , not too long ago. I dont like the fan constantly running at 26-39%, doesnt seem to do good. will having the fan running at 100% all the time kill my card within monthes? What negative side effects will I have? And instead of 100% , is there a good reasonable speed I should have it set at all the time? What is ATI's temp threshold , so if it gets too hot I should worry? Thanks if anyone takes the time to help ^.^, i'm not really a +1 person and such, so like yea:(. Sorry for any grammatical errors and stuff.
its ok, should be fine, fans are supposed to run at 100% and last long... i keep my gpu fan 100% all the time
Where do you get the tray tools from pls?
Okay thanks, I wasnt sure if having at 100% ALL the time would seriously damage or kill my card, im not 100% sure about deep graphics card stuff , but I know the essentials about some things, blah blah blah, I really dont plan on overclocking, I just tried some with ATI tool about an hour ago and the refresh rate soared to 98-110HZ and like yeaa, >.< so no more of that for me.
I downloaded tray tools from some russian site, the link was found in omegadrivers.net go there and search for the link to download ATI traytools, I dont condone to what happens to your card etc *edit so sorry for the double post , I rarely do it , very sorry.

lol - cool dude thks
I have a fan question too.
If I install case fan should I put it so that it sucks cool air in or blows hot air out?

front fans:in
Side fans: in
Rear/top fans:out
but many people have tried otherwise.

withe the tray tools, how do you change the speed of the fan?
EDIT: I found out, but it says i have not got the supported hardware
