Heya! I own a gigabyte z87-UD3H mobo and I was wondering if what software I can use to control my Ram cooler fan. Some say use the SmartFan utility software that comes with the CD. I installed it but I can't seem to find the fan controlling part of it. It's suppose to be in EasyTune right...

How to do that? So basically what you mean is while I'm browsing or watching a movie, I set it to 2D and while gaming, I'll set it to 3D? is it automatic? What are the steps?

Is it worth having more dust than good airflow? Please advise

I see... I have a custom fan speed .. technically when it reaches around 50c fan goes to 60% and so forth.. by 70c it's already @ 100%.. the noise isn't bothering my anyways..

@GhostRyder @GreiverBlade you mean go 65% fan speed all the way in manual?

The Philippines.. Before I used to get 94c while playing watch dogs and 92 in Cyris 3. Now I only get 84c max on Watch dogs and 79 on Crysis 3..

Heya! Update: Got my new r9 290 today from RMA. Temps are better(10c lower than before in games)..

Update: Just RMA'd it.. Hoping for a quick return

Yes. Unfortunately it is :(

@fullinfusion which screws on our 290 tighten the heat sink? I only was able to tighten the backplate.. Haven't check the heat sink

Nah.. I think I'll RMA it.. thanks again

My card is 3 months old :D.. my FurMark is 1.12.0.0

VRM temps improved since I tightened the backplate(it was loose) -not sure if it's related

Hey guys.. here it is.. run furmark for 7 minutes..

Will do.. give me an hour until I get back from work.. thanks for the help
