Listmates,
I have an EVGA 8800GT board that is just plain Loud! No overclocking, just the default 600,900 gpu and memory speeds. I have searched and the closest thing to rivatuner for linux is nvclock. I have installed and worked with nvclock setting the PWM Duty Cycle between 20-90% (nvclock -f -F 20, etc. returning to 'auto'). The change in sound from the fan is almost imperceptible.
Note: adjustments with nvclock can cause kdm to crash violently on logout. (remote ssh shutdown required)
I don't doubt that's true, but on the few occasions when I've over-overclocked my 8600 card, the screen went nuts (very interesting distortions), but I could still enter commands on the keyboard and use the nvclock command to undo the ill-chosen overclocking ("nvclock -r" or "nvclock --reset").
