Hey,

I know that this may not be the right place for this thread but considering that i am making no headway whatsoever i thought that the right place to start maybe here itself.

I am facing heating issues with my ATI 3850 card with latest drivers installed. Can someone tell me how to go about increasing my GPU fan speed??

I have already tried lm sensors and pwmconfig which i failed to understand :confused:.

thanks for your help

I do but I have nVidia, try nvclock it might work with AMD/ATi's fans?

There's your problem. ATi's (now AMD's) drivers have crappy Linux support.
