I'm bored so i decided to share some different fan profiles that people can use with afterburner or any other software that allows fan control with a reference 7xxx series card.
I've tested these pretty thoroughly using the blower and can confirm great results, just pick depending on how much noise you can put up with and how much of an overclock you apply.
I'm able to maintain a good overclock with a slight voltage bump and keep the fan silent.
I use silent/quiet for all games apart from sleeping dogs extreme which required balanced. This is with a speed of 1152core/1823 memory, 1.137 volts (stock 1.112) memory 1.656 volts. (stock 1.6)
Silent - Stock
Quiet - Light overclock
Normal - Decent overclock
Balanced - Performance version of normal, no increase in sound level but better, quicker cooling.
Performance - For Large Overclocks
Performance Extreme - Extreme version of performance with no increase in sound level but better, quicker cooling.
Benchmark - For extreme overclocks to bench
Benchmark Extreme - Extreme version of benchmark with no increase in sound level but better, quicker cooling.
