i had to de-install atitool
i got me the replacement RMA card for my defective (pixel pipe hosed) Sapphire X850XT, and now i got a X850XT, i *think* its an ATI one. (ati sticker on fan and 102...number)
Anyway with Atitool i get a very high pitched whining sound from the fan, no matter what speed i set the fan at.
If i de-install Atitool the high pitch sound is gone. Also, with "another tool" (which name i wont say) i do NOT have the high pitch sound - although the fan sounds louder....with the "other tool" even at 60% or so the fan is almost nerve wrecking....
The Atitool high pitch sound is not "loud"....its rather quiet but its there and can get quiet annoying.
I am sure it has to do with PWM control of the temp sensor....and maybe you need another setting there like "the other tool" has which does NOT have the high whistling fan sound.
