I am anoyed by the high temps from my 3850s, the fans arent working right, was getting 80C, so I got ATItool.

But ATItool isnt working right,,,showing the wrong clock speeds other than what I had set in ATI overdrive and I tried to make the fans turn on and they wont respond,but they are spinning.

Whats odd though is once in a while I can get the fans going at 100%,then I can OC the cards to 770GPU,999memory with the stock heatsink and it stays at 60C.

Is ATItool not detecting my card right?, ive got the newest 0.27B4 Version.

I tried rivatuner aswell and the fans wont turn on when I tell them to run at 100%, seems both those programs dont detect my card right..

You can always try to plug the fan in your motherboard or fan controller. It may require some modding, but it should be easy.
