Topic: 2x6970 rig runs extremely loud and hot (Read 1076 times)
In my case, the setting stay the same until next reboot. And I can ear and see the difference in cooling with odgt.
Try this :
to get fan speed for card 0
export DISPLAY=:0.0; aticonfig --pplib-cmd "get fanspeed 0"
to get fan speed for card 1
export DISPLAY=:0.1; aticonfig --pplib-cmd "get fanspeed 0"
to set fan speed for card 0 to 50%
export DISPLAY=:0.0; aticonfig --pplib-cmd "set fanspeed 0 50"
to get fan speed for card 0
export DISPLAY=:0.0; aticonfig --pplib-cmd "get fanspeed 0"
to get fan speed for card 1
export DISPLAY=:0.1; aticonfig --pplib-cmd "get fanspeed 0"
to set fan speed for card 0 to 50%
export DISPLAY=:0.0; aticonfig --pplib-cmd "set fanspeed 0 50"
aticonfig claims that I changed the fan speed, but it is still the same loudness. And I don't believe any other fans are to blame. Also, the old fan speed appears again after a restart.

I have a dual 6970 rig that I just got. It runs incredibly loud and very hot, able to heat up a whole room very easily. Is there a way I could step down the fan speeds so it doesn't sound like a WWII-era fighter plane?
I'm on Ubuntu by the way.
