Hi guys...
I have Asus Geforce GTX 960... Here Where I am living Temperature is Above 45°c. So Can I set my GPU'S fan Speed to Manual At 80% Always? if I did so Is there any problem?

Yes, you could do that, either through MSI Afterburner or maybe your BIOS. I don't believe there would be a problem, aside from the noise obviously.

However, I wouldn't do this for a simple reason: The fans should be set to raise and lower speed as needed. If the fan is running at a certain speed, it means the temps are under control and there is no need for it to be kicked up a notch.

I am Using Asus GPU tweak, Can I do that with it?

Yes if you open the program there is a huge slider that's called "Fan Speed(%)". Set to manual and slide it to 80%.

Should be fine but it reduces the life expectancy of the fan. Not a big deal as no one is planning on keeping their card for over 5 years anyways. You are most likely to upgrade it before than
