    Hi everyone,

    I overclocked my nVidia 9700m GTS GPU, and it can run quite hot, up to 160, and I want to change the fans to high speed so I can keep it cooler, more stable, and extend the life of the component. Is there any fan program or fan tweak that will alow me to adjust the fans in my Toshiba Qosmio x305?

    Thanks

    160 F isnt really that bad since its pretty normal for cards to run up to 82C which is at least 180 Fahrenheit .I wouldnt be worried if I were you.
