Might be upgrading to a 7800 series card soon and wanted to know if there's any program available like the eminently handy ATI Tool that I use to keep my GPU's fan toned down when it's not running 3D apps and its temps are low.

The ATI Tool is my preference over ATI Tray Tools as it is simpler, easier to use, and smaller footprint. As far as for NVidia cards, is there a similar program out there to allow GPU temp-based fan speed adjustments over a range of manually selected temps and fan speed settings like ATI Tool offers?

Come on, guys, pretty simple question. Surely those of you running NVidia cards have a fan/temp control software you recommend?

I use Rivatuner and NVTemp to semi make-up the loss of not being able to use ATI Tool. Surprising to see that there aren't any great little programs like ATI Tool for Nvidia cards.

You're mixing up ATI Tool with ATI Tray Tools. AFAIK, ATT doesn't have nVidia support.

Anyways, I might try RivaTuner, but I'm afraid the UI just won't feel the same like good ol' ATT.

(I'll get over it though :) )

ATITool

0.25 Beta 14.
Major changes to the latest stable version are:
Added support for NVIDIA video cards
Addded support for ATI X1300, X1600, X1800, X1900
Added voltage control for ATI X1800
Added current draw monitoring for ATI X1800
Added VDDCI change for ATI X1900
Fan & Voltage settings can be saved to a profile now

it worked fine with my 6800gs, i haven't tried it on my 7800gt though.

I said in my previous post that ATT (ATI Tray Tools) doesn't have nVidia support. You're quoting from the ATI Tool page. Besides, I don't even use ATI Tool.

nobody is asking about ATI TT, the original poster is asking about ATI Tool. Yes it works with nVidia cards.

NVTray is available for nVidia cards. Same concept as ATI Tray Tools.
