Re: both my 9800 GT OC overheating.

The default fan speed is 30%, use Precision to jack that up and it will cool your card much better. Only thing is noise gets up there too. The card will increase the speed, but it always seems that it lets the temps get way too high before it does so. When I manually select a fan speed, I usually go with 70%, seems to work for me while running FAH and using 100% of the GPU.
