Using Win7 Ultimate 32bit ATI HD5870 Card Driver Package Version 8.961 OpenGL Version 6.14
I am testing v0.09 and I have noticed that my fan is spinning at 100% even though my temperature is at 70c.
I read in the change log .....
Can I assume that if the user doesn't specify a temperature that the default is set to 100% regardless of temperature ?
I cannot find any further instruction for this feature, unless I am not looking hard enough.
My card always runs at about 70c-72c with previous versions of oclHashcat-plus which means my fan is at about 50-60% which is much quieter !!! Occasionally the fan speed increased but then dropped back.
Is there away to make this automatic again ? I am tempted to enter the new command --gpu-temp-retain 71 but I am concerned I may fry my card if this is wrong.
Thank you.
