I recently got a Sapphire Radeon HD 4890 (New Edition)
( http://www.techpowerup.com/gpudb/b211/sapphire-hd-4890-new-edition.html ) and I had some big issues getting the drivers to work properly and for my monitors to work with it, however I don't think that it's the drivers that are causing the problem but it could be...
So right now with a few programs open the card is idling at 60C.
Now, the reason I don't think it's the driver problem, is because when I go into Afterburner
and turn the fan up to full, I can't even get the temps below 40C and that's with the fan on full.
Is this the way it's supposed to run or what because the drivers are definitely letting it sit at 60C.
Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.
BTW, the temps for average gaming load max out at about 75C, but with FurMark,
if I didn't manually take over the fan control, they would have gone over 90C. And I don't
even like my cards running in the 80s.
