8800GT loud fan

[badwolfshamma]

funny how there is a comment every 6 montsh *6 months later* 1 thumbs up

[KEEVVY]

evga is usually hot & loud & sometimes people even send the cards back to get a nother.

[JBOGermany]

8800GT Loud ?? haha i got 2 ATI 4870hd X2 in crossfire mode . only a boing 747 is louder

[VlogMaster100]

Its not even loud dude xD Did you ever hear a 3870x2 on 100%?

[xpsruler]

I have to run my computer with the side panel off in order to keep it cool. The fan is so annoying.

[tribalmasters]

It doesn't sound that loud!

[buzzaugust]

i ordered at standard 8800gt but i got lucky and recieved a special editon with a much better fan, from Asus. that fan is completly unhearable, but cools great.

[TrashbatDOTcock]

yeh 8800gt is fucking loud, stfu fags that complain it isnt that bad, EVERYONE who has heard mine thinks it is too noisey, i can run it at 30% and it still draws attention to itself ;__;

9600 is not better than 8800 LOL /sigh

[jakejanne]

How can you get that screen where you see what's the temp of your rig.

[jedisociety]

nvidia geforce 8600's fan is the loudest shit ever you cant even compare this one to THAT

[xXxmidgexXx]

my ATI crashes all the time

[hlssmat]

ATI is known for that

[xXxmidgexXx]

lol yeah mines a ATI Radeon HD 4850 512MB GDDR3 . Do you know of any nVidia card which can compete with this?

[rysliv]

9600gt has a loud fan on full speed but the 9600 is better now 8800 sucks dont get it

[Shunsuke02]

Wrong.

[banthafooder2]

Actually The 8800 gt is better then 9600 gt.

[CRAKIZGOOD]

the 9600 is slower

read some nvidia recycling stories

[BANNERIII]

i have 8800gt alpha dog edition and it's not loud...

[southpaw117]

I have the same card, and it is kind of loud - not like in this video as it sounds different when recorded, but yeah.

[rysliv]

dude thats normal but its not loud its decent dont depend on the loudness ok just fck it and its made to play games and stuff oh yeah the fans dont autospeed its always broken manual only

[callumwest13]

Just recently saved up 4 years to get a top of the range PC. Quad Core, the shit. Got NvidiaGeforce 9800, the remake of the 8800. I got two of em bad boys in my system and they both have 1GB of memory on them.

[unrealboot1]

OMG a plane is crashing!

[Kamianek]

WOW... all you are doing is controlling the fan of the graphic card with a program called: Rivatuner.. I use the program too and overclocked my 8800gt and set the fan to 50% when stock was 34%.

[dunlrock]

lol 4850 noise is nothin compared to 8800

[Jockesse]

It's way higher in RL. Trust me. every game works fine, but shit... even if i use a headset, i still hear that fan! You would'nt even hear bombs going off nearby if it would!

[rysliv]

ahaha live with it cause i own adatacenter with 600 thousand cfm you know how frikin loud that is??? up to 90 to 118db

[dunlrock]

That is super loud??? ahahahaha check out my HD4850 video

[m41c0ml1n3]

i keep my 8800gt's at 70% fan speed, idles at 40C, loads at 55C, but crysis loads at 60C. oc'd both to 700mhz core, 1700mhz shader, and 1000mhz memory.

[simb666uot21]

what program do you use and where did you downloaded it from?

I have it stuck at 100% and the sound is insane.

[02parmara]

hey man, need some advice, i have a HP media centre pc just like you, i changed my psu nd upgraded to an 8800gt from a nvidia 7500le. but how do you overclock your cpu cos my bios is locked i dont ko how to unlock it and all that, do u kno a way so u dont have to unlcok your bios?

[tinkleondabeach]

Yeah, XFX actually offers an adapter to reduce the fan noise / speed and it really reduces the noise on the system.

Google 'free fan adapter'

[Pinkyred9]

i just put an 8800 in my comp a few minutes ago and i thought it was pretty loud, but now i know i was wrong! It just sounds like static in the background while this one is just... wow

[CiscoDaMan]

The problem is that you have a 2-pin header which doesn't allow you to adjust the speed. This is on certain low-budget 8800GT models like mine. It will then run on 100% ALL THE TIME. I just bought a Arctic Cooling S1 (Rev. 2) and I'm gonna place a 120mm case fan to it. Can't wait to try it and relax without the vacuum cleaner noise in my chassis.

[simb666uot21]

I have a 80mm fan and a 120mm fan how do I put it on my video card? isn't it attached with that big metal thing around.

and mine is connected to the 6 pin, no other connecters around.

[kiikasi]

It may be loud, BUT FUCK, ITS WORTH IT! It raised my max overclock from 640 to 760!!! :D

[magemage60]

Wow thats the graphics card? Mines SO LOUD i dont even notice anymore... But wtf. THATS MY GRAPHICS CARD? holy sht its so loud..

[TehGames]

I know same here! My 8800GT is hella loud! I'm downloading Rivatuner to lower it. (if anyone knows what speed I should keep it at, please tell me)

[simb666uot21]

tell me if that program works because mine is blocked at 100%.

[carboN1011]

lol why hundred?...i know its a 8800gt but i got a 8800GT and i got the GPU on 73 =]] but 100 c mon man! to loud

[iganku]

The cooler is fine , its that case theres no room

[gamerjinho]

get vf700 on those baby.. (i think thats the model)

or if ur crazy, HR-03 babY!!!!

[jakanddaxterlover15]

100 procent sounds REALLY loud :P But i use Rivatuner to adjust it sometimes xD

[yaiknowscrewme]

in a small case like that youll need the fan on high..the cooler it runs the better it runs

[laziruss]

haha you have the same case/computer as me :)

[Nightcover]

Well, there's a reason they dont go to 100%

[Senkrad1234]

You can set the speed of the fan? Thats pretty cool

[Creamlistner]

You can adjust fan speed on any graphics card with the help of programs, most of which you can download for free. =)

[simb666uot21]

where, mine is blocked at 100%.

[CiscoDaMan]

If you have a 8800GT you can use the Accelero S1 Ver. 2 and mount the fans with strips around the metal grill. was no problem for me.

[simb666uot21]

huh? What you mean

what I do step by step?

1. download Accelero S1 Ver. 2

2. ?

[michaelhammike]

or you can flash it.. i did it with my old ati 3870 and my actual ati 4870... you need a program to copy the bios of your card to you pc and ahother to change the fan setings in the bios..

[benhowil]

yo got two of them and close up the case dumass

[NappiKing]

LOL I KNO ROFL!! what a fucking meatball head!

[minijeppe]

He´s "only" got one, the other is some PCI thing, maybe a soundcard or something...

[Marlo290988]

lol...1st: close you case.

2nd: get a decent VGA cooler...ive got the 8800GT aswell and its awsomely quiet thanks to a good old Zalman cooler.

Beatr this: HDD is louder then the card running at full fan speed and its below 60°C.

I dont see a prob...so get a better cooler.

Easy.

[sanderhoudini]

could you send me a link of such a cooler? because i'm considering buying two 8800GT's for SLI... but i hate that noise! arrgg!

The motherboard on witch i want to to install the two cards, has two 16x PCI slots ( is that enough for the cooler? )

Do i have to completely shut down the coolers on the cards themself? or just to a less noise level? ( like 30% or so )

Thanks in advance ;p

[o0oPhreako0o]

Try to add &fmt=6 instead of &fmt=18 to the end of the url...

#phreak

[dominator91154487]

Guys If you want to watch this video in High Quality, add &fmt=18 at the end of the url (works with all of the videos) Makes videos much better to watch!

[stupidguyaabbcc]

wow are you serious to me thats really quiet. my hp right now get loud like a vacuum cleaner for like 10 secs to cool it down, then it gets normal. anyway, 55% is quiet

[SWApilot94]

now try it with the cover on ur case and see if its quieter

[GenericName007]

Well, worst come to worst, this card is pretty cheap at this point and will get even cheaper with the new Nvidia card coming out. So worst case you could just buy an aftermarket cooler to slap on there, good idea anyway if you plan to overclock it.

[slaterking1000]

casue it might get hot

Mine is set at 60%

[deuceswild2222]

becuz u turned up the fan duhhhhhhhhhh

[Ohthesickone]

whts wrong with ur card snd it bck if u werent the 1 who brok it, and i know it shold not make that noise because iv herd a thipple SLI 8800 Gts cards all together and it doest make that much noise or that grinding noise either SO FIX IT NOW or snd it bck which ever one is the one that you should do OH my GOD this is the longest comment in the histery of ever holy shit letters are going to be MAXXED out oh i only have 79 allowed left to put in here oooo thats so gay i hav a limit 15 well no more

[mupet00000]

It's not broken. You can't have 8800GT's in Tri-SLI. Lawl.

[alex4527]

Dude holy shit thanks for this vid. It really helped me. I never knew it was THAT lound!

Mine is dead silent cuz of the heat pipes

[kfootballkid]

i want to get eVGA because of the step up program, is it worth it? or should i go for XFX since usually their fans are really quiet even on 100% like nuttertools said.

[xTal3nt]

The GT will sound the same even if you buy it from XFX, unless they actually replace the default Heatsink / fans its always going to sound loud.

Kfootballkid, Also his fan is increased from the basic 30%. Trust me with a good case you won't hear a thing, I currently cannot hear my 2 x 8800 GTX Ultra's

[ninjahua]

THIS IS SUPERLOUD! :D

[aznn3rd]

This is what my shitty 3D FUZION 7300GS sounds on idle xD

[polish1stdivision]

I have the same shitty card too! IT SUCKS! I have it over clocked to 614 core and 762 for the memory to make it able to play some games. I am able to play Crysis on almost everything on high but like 3 settings.If I was to put those 3 settings on medium and everything else on high, the card gives me like 3 fps.I have to put the resolution down to 800x600 play the damn game too! If I didn't have 2560mb of ram, I'd be screwed. In a month or two I'm getting a 8800GT- CAN"T WAIT. MY CARD SUCKS!

[polish1stdivision]

I'm talking about the 3d Fusion 7300 GS with turbo chache

512mb (with turbochache)

256mb(on board)

64-bit

612GHz Core 762GHz Memory(Overclocked)

Underload - 78 C

Internet Surfin' - 55 C

DONT BUY

[aznn3rd]

I used to think all cards were that loud until I got a Radeon 3850, which I can barely hear at 50% fan

[atvdude650]

lol, at first I thought you were talking about the 8800GT and was like "What? Those videos on the GT's performance are lying to me?" Fixing to run 2 of them in SLI, gunna be sweet!

[thundercunt9]

do people care that much about that sound just get some good noise canceling head phones ? some one gimme a fakin nobel prize genius...

[doctorKilljoy]

I agree with you. People complaining about loud fan sounds are pretty stupid. Put some headphones on, that's what you should be doing anyway if you're a gamer.

[xTal3nt]

Or just use a case with sound dampening foam installed like I have and your 2 8800 GT's are very quiet. :)

[nuttertools888]

dude that sucks. my xfx is super quiet even at 100%. also my temps idle at 40 and max out at 52. i dont understand how people are getting such high temps and loud fans.

[omg5501]

lol mine is at 29% fan speed and its idle 70C. xD and when playing in never goes above 85C. i forget to tell you that im running TWO od these in SLI so its hotter in case...

[joshua12345676]

Crank them to at least 50% and youll see double digit drops in temp :)

[omg5501]

mg i had them there but when im not plaing it really screaming...better is auto cyclus i think 29% in win and 80% in game xD

[Zearka]

lol vista sucks not tryig to be offensive but i used it for a while and went back to xp so many bugs way to laggy and lotsw of incompatible games

[banany12]

Mine is on 60% (fan speed) on mine XFX 8800GT 512mb 670M, and its on 39C now on idle load ; )

[ALilHope]

Mine has never went above 70C. Idle it's 55C, when gaming it's 66C

[Savvz89]

All the fans on my computer are silent so I nearly shit myself when I first installed and ran my GT. I run it at 75% (46C) and just wear headphones to keep the noise out.

[multisync36]

mb i saw it wrong but do u have that in SLI?

[Kaleb34]

hey man, whenever i use rivatuner, i cant speed up fan speed..i dont know why is it something to do with conflicting nVidia drivers? please someone help!

[lessQQmorepewpeww]

Who games w/o music or something anyway? I rather have a loud fan going in the back then shitty graphics and peace. Plus again, who games w/o jamming out? :]

[FreakOfMeds]

I have a Regular Gainward 8800 GT at stock speeds and stock cooler. I have it all the time at 50% fan speed when at idle and get around 49-51 C temps, but when I get into a game, I crank it up to 90%. It never speeds up on its own. Without doing so, the temps well exceed 75C, but when putting it on 90% it never exceeds 65%.

Even though loud, I think the stock cooler is pretty effective at higher speeds.

Also I keep the side tower open at all times.

[theSnake14]

Put the cover back on the side of your case and it won't be as loud...

[Lokabergslagen]

I think he rather have it loud than burned out...but as he complains to it as he has the door detached on his own command, its weird i can agree.

[gunsnroses123456789]

is that this software that came with it? were you able to increase the fan speed with something you downloaded online or was the the software that came with it?

[LordVolodor]

gunsnroses he is using rivatuner

[TormentorD]

What type of 8800GT you have? i have a normal Gainward 8800GT and in windows and other aplications it has arround 48-49c, and full load in crysis for example, it had max 68c, and that's with the fan at about 40% (it never exceded 40%, with dynamic fan control, i didn't set it at 40%) i didn't hear nothing and my computer is built to be silent, so if there was some noise from the fan i would have heard it) + i won't be using it for more than 1 year :D i am waiting for the new series from Nvidia

[jupaisgt]

Becouse you have a Gainward is the best 8800gt cooler solution... You card is red and is 2 slot

[TormentorD]

Nope it's the standard nvidia single slot cooler

[Firkini]

there is two types of default coolers they look same but the 2nd edition has little bit bigger and better fan on it maybe you got lucky?

[Firkini]

i have it too and its not loud at default 29% but that doesnt cool it properly i hadto put it to 45% to get 'safe' temps of 65c under load and its REALLY LOUD at 45% but 95% of ppl have loud comps even before they got the card so they are saying its fine, durka20 and tormentor it does work fine at 29% speed but how long? will your card last over year with the high temps? wait and see

[TormentorD]

XD i have one too and not even in Crysis the fan doesn't reach that speed so the speed you showed can't be obtained in any aplication or game. It does make that sound when i start the computer but in games and stuff like that no.

[durka20]

i have the 8800gt and it does not make that noise

[Arno123321123321]

i have the same wallpaper XD

[slaterking1000]

i dont like em

[dominator91154487]

you don't like 8800GTs?

[slaterking1000]

i prefer 8800 GTS's or GTX's

[sircrashalot]

ur paying 200-300$ XD FOR NUTTING its just an overclocked version of the gt =)

[lessQQmorepewpeww]

Hmm, is this eVGA e-Geforce Superclocked edition? Cause in that case, yah, waste of money when you could've gotten the PNY XLR8 8800 GT version which is much quieter and runs smoother for the same price. Buying a factory overclocked graphics card should never be a first resort anyway. They usually are very hot and sketchy because well.. The graphics card is ran at it's max... Never good.

[wizkid22]

close your case

[DeathsOneDesign]

rivetuner

[DROFDNAS]

thats not defualt fan sound is it?

[dominator91154487]

Well the first one I showed you was at 100% then it defaults to 29%

[mirageH1992]

YOu're soundcar or whatever is to close to you're 8800GT. Try to put it in a other slot because you're 8800GT can't suck really good now:P (sounds weird =)

[dominator91154487]

It's a tuner card, I need it because I do alot of video editing

[mirageH1992]

Don't you have another PCI slot below?

[GGA]

These days it is easier to find Osama bin laden than a 8800gt!! Cant seem to find them anywhere in stock.

[Guess89Who]

can you play crysis using the 8800gt with every thing maxed out???

[kevin62492]

depends on the res..and unless you are running 800x600 u cant do all very high settings...still all high @ 1280x1024 is smooth and still looks awsome :)

[dominator91154487]

yes at 20FPS on 1280*1024

[ibl33d]

i can.. works nicely!!

[Guess89Who]

dude can u play crysis using the 8800gt with every thing maxed out???

[dominator91154487]

yes at a dcent resolution too.

[nguyenpeter76]

well then put on the side panel..

[Kepkaaa]

You did know that GT does 70db ?

[dominator91154487]

I can put it on but I don't really feel like unscrewing my brand new card and doing something that may ruin it, I'll probably do it in a month

[apocalypseap]

Too bad you can't put the Thermaltake Duorb on it... unless you can put the Duorb on an 8600 GTS? Because I hear that 8800GT is compatible with all 8600 aftermarket coolers.
