Thumbs down video fan throttling up?

I'm running a 7900GS with the latest drivers on vista ultimate with aero on. The problem is though, that when I open up any picture or video or occasionally an image-heavy web page, the fan on the card throttles up to 100% for about 10 seconds. It gets really annoying. I am unable to directly control fan speed with ntune.

Any ideas? Thanks!

Default Re: video fan throttling up?

Riva tuner has fan control , you could try that and set it to start on boot up and set the fan speed at whatever % you think will be good
