    Hi I was wondering if someone could help me with the fan control on my notebook. I recently overclocked the Graphics card, but the fan won't kick into max until the GPU hits 80 C which is ridiculous. All I want to do is lock my fan to the max. I spent 4 hours looking and trying out programs to help me do this but none work.

    thanks :)

    The only chance seems to be manually modifying values in RW-Everything.
    It's far from being ideal but might work- do some research on how to do that and which offsets to modify.
    I haven't done it myself so I won't be of any help (in the same way that forum search won't be so please use Google) but we've seen some success with this method here on the forum.
