what is the fur bench? and i want to boost the fan speed so i can OC more, i think its heat that is limiting me. it wont let me max my ram in CCC overdrive.

Dont bother running the furbench...your card is already running pretty hot.

You need to dump your bios then edit the fan settings, then reflash it. Its pretty easy.

i don't know about flashing and ATI cards

IMO just get riva tuner, if you want to fix your fan speed at a certain fan speed then you can do it with riva tuner, you can also set autimatic fan speeds with riva tuner as well, depending on how skilled you are with RT.
