Hey Guys

I have a Nvidia 8800 gt overclocked edition. I have the Riva Tuner running and the gpu fan at 65%, and my idle temp is 61c. I don't hear any significant sounds coming from the fan. I want to lower the temp even more. Would it cause any damage to the fan to increase speed to 70% or higher? Does anyone know?

I Ran my fan @ 100% on my 8800GT and @ 100% on my gtx 280.

No. The only tradeoff is noise.
