I could not understand why it was necessary to run the fan in full speed when writing a blog post like this. I was able to reduce the fan speed using the software Rivatuner which has fan profiles for 2D, low power 3D and 3D modes…[more] [...] [...] My 6600 GT was making lots of noises that were driving me crazy.

Unfortunately, my ATI Radeon X1900 XT doesn't seem to be as well supported as NVIDIA cards; I only have one slider for fan control. However, that still allowed me to control the fan manually to check the noise levels - and it seems the GPU fan is not the noisiest element in my PC. So I'll look into controlling the other candidates (PSU and CPU fans, maybe even HDDs) to eventually reduce the overall noise level. Thanks for the very quick response to my request for this!
