Hi Experts:D

I just discovered EVGA Precision and have used it to set my GPU fans at 100% all the time. Both idle and load temps have dropped by quite a bit, CPU temp is lower too:)

My question is, Will having the fan at max all the time damage the fan or the cards?

Thanks
 
I just realized that you can have profiles LOL. I made 1 with fans at 75% for windows and 1 at 100% for gaming. I think its a good comparmise.

Before I got precision, Dead Space crashed after 5mins, with fans at 100% it didnt crash at temps hit 85C max. Funny thing is, I paused the game for the phone and temps went right up and the game crashed with the driver stopped responding error. Turning on vsync fixed that and brought temps down a lot.
