i downloaded ntune to throttle the fan according to what i'm doing, and it never goes above 50, even in crysis when set to 70% speed.fan gets quite loud when you set it to those high speed levels,

exceptthat the drivers on the disc do not work with windows 7 so you have to download them via either evga or nvidia, but thats more or less my bad for using a free os.
