One of my fans on it failed, so I don't want to put it under too much stress until I get a replacement. I'm actually going with a entire new cooler, because i've been reading reviews and the stock cooler on these cards suck. I got this one. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835186052

Just monitor the temp with Afterburner as well, make sure its not getting too hot. Looks like the max temp on that GPU is 90C. So just make sure the 1 fan keeps it below that. It should.

I noticed Catalyst Control Center didn't seem to be able to control the fan speed on it though. Played a round of bf before work on the US hardcore and temps were nice and consistent though.I wonder if Afterburner would work for the fan speed. Never used it
