***Powercolor PCS+ R9 290 Mini Review***

What have you got your custom fan profiles set to?

With mine running at 1100/1400 at stock volts, I've got it on a custom curve starting at 20% & topping out at 55%. Under load I'm getting a max of 75°C.

It's an Antec P182 with the standard case fans set on low.

Nice case but geared more for water cooling, it has a solid front on it with intake airflow restricted by openings along the sides, a mesh open front case is more suitable for this type of air cooling as they have much more airflow volume through the case.

I use a HAF 912 with 200mm intake and 200mm top exhaust fans, its why i'm running about 10c lower.

But having said that 75c is also pretty decent. :)

Just purchased a 290 PCS+ from OcUK...should arrive later today.

What is the best software to tweak fan settings for this card? MSI Afterburner?

Cheers,
