thanks aberforth and narynan, but now that I can see my hd4870 temp, it's 75 degrees Celcius on idle, and 85 degrees Celcius for its onboard memory.
I read the fan fix by changing CCC profile values, but it doesn't work for me, i have CCC version 8.8, is there a fan fix for this version of CCC?
(on profile manager page: I click 'activate and close' button, it just asks me if i want to replace the profile with same name, and if i choose 'activate profile' from the drop down menu, nothing happens either)
I made sure settings were manual, target rpm is 0, and target percentage is 60
any help is appreciated, thanks (anything like riva tuner out now that works?)

EXPERTool will change you fan speed *dynamically*

FORGET editing profiles unless you like an annoying whine all the time
my HD4870 temps dropped OUT of the 80s and i can easily get 820/1160!!
EDIT: OK, how do I sort out the appropriate fan speeds for temperature levels?

if you set it dynamically, it adjusts the fan speed like CCC does, but more aggressively - so your card stays cooler
if you set it manually, set it to what level you can handle .. it is enough unless you are a mad O/C'er or a noise princess
