my 270 RMA was less than 6 days (including travel "to" and "back") but i live in a small land ... were overnight delivery is quite common ... i hope it will be short for you too (MSI seems to be quite fast on decision and RMA processing, at last MSI Holland was ... )Update: Just RMA'd it.. Hoping for a quick return

funny i got 94° on a ref cooler in auto but now that i apply @GhostRyder 65% fix fan speed i never got past 64° in game (except BF4 75° sometime) ok 65% is kinda noisy but with my sound setup i don't hear it that much and i plan on re using my Prolimatech MK-26 once i get a case that can fit it, and maybe a Gelid Icy Vision V2 in between (running it 1000/1300 atm)The Philippines.. Before I used to get 94c while playing watch dogs and 92 in Cyris 3. Now I only get 84c max on Watch dogs and 79 on Crysis 3..

Yea, 60%-65% depending on the setup when testing allowed for the temps of the reference card to keep well below 80c which I found funny at how much of a difference that 5% made.funny i got 94° on a ref cooler in auto but now that i apply @GhostRyder 65% fix fan speed i never got past 64° in game (except BF4 75° sometime) ok 65% is kinda noisy but with my sound setup i don't hear it that much and i plan on re using my Prolimatech MK-26 once i get a case that can fit it, and maybe a Gelid Icy Vision V2 in between (running it 1000/1300 atm)

Oh sorry for not being clear we were referencing the reference models of the 290/290X fan speeds. But even when I mess with aftermarket cooler cards I normally do bump the fan speeds up beyond and just test what speeds offer the best temp control during games so they do not adjust all the time. However new coolers have gotten so much better its almost unnecessary.@GhostRyder @GreiverBlade you mean go 65% fan speed all the way in manual?
