fan speed control for ati card

you can overclock fine with att. i can see the calculate button, and mine is greyed out too - i've never really noticed it tbh, and don't know what it calculates.

to overclock, slide your slider, then hit the 'apply button' at the bottom right - then save your overclocked profile, making sure you have the 'include clocks...' button checked. your saved profile name should now include some numbers relating to your tweaked speeds.

i've not had ccc for years, and whilst i haven't had to overclock my new card yet, i have used att to clock all previous ati cards with no problems.

if you are the technical tweaking type, check out ati tray tools (latest beta works fine with me)- it's infinitely better than the standard ati catalyst control center, including more fine control over the fans - for instance i have my fans set to zero (so things are nice and quiet) until a certain temp, then have the fan smoothly ramping up when things get hotter...

the software is good for lots of other features too, but i won't go into them here...

So do you just download and install the 'driver only' portion or do you download the entire version and just disable CCC from starting?

i just download the driver myself.

i decided years ago that i didn't need ccc at all.

i ain't changed my mind yet!

I am trying to install the ATT now :b I don't understand anything about overclock, so can you tell me what are the main advantages and all I need to know about it? :b

I'm having problems trying to install ATT :x

well i can't tell you all about it - i can only give a very quick and simple start:

overclocking a graphics card is making it run at a higher speed than it was designed for.

the advantage is that you get better performance in games, but the disadvantages include more heat and less stability.

you really need to do some more research before you start overclocking - there is some more information here.

you have a mobility graphics card? is that a laptop?

you may not have much success overclocking that card - laptops do get hot quickly, and your games may crash.

sorry i was writing my post above while you posted.

i don't think att won't run on your laptop - it's really designed for desktop graphics cards.

have a look at this thead on the att forums. the software author says "ATT has very limited support for mibility chips."

LOLz, I installed another one, and I got blue screen of death, had to start safe mode and uninstall it. Now my laptop is good again :)

My laptop gets hot too quickley, if I make a render or something like that, it gets to 75ºC ~ 80ºC... I wanted to speed my fan and set up a profile for it to run better and for it to cool my computer.. it gets really hot.. can you help?
