Not sure about the problem with auto in CCC, but I don't trust CC in general. I and many others here use MSI Afterburner. It's free and works with all manufacturers. You can set any fan profile you wish with an easy graph.
Surprisingly hot card (Idle) 91 C

The funny thing is that i've never had problems with CCC in my 4 years with ATi cards... BUt I use GPU-z to check temps and ratios. Also, my PCIe Freq is at 105... But that too, is low too cause problems isnt it? I played The Last Remnant for about 8 hours yesterday not counting breaks (leaving it on) with it doing fine the whole time. And that is a pretty graphic intensive game.

Did you try lowering the PCIe freq just to rule it out as the problem? Also, what's your fan speed on auto at idle? If it's set too low the card will be hot at idle, but auto should ramp the speed up... It makes sense that it's fine when you game, as I'm sure the fan is running faster under load as it should.
If I were you I'd try Afterburner..

Hey salut ! ^_^
Im prolly gonna leave it at 100% Fan speed. It idles at 40C now. BUt i'll definately check out that software. And for the Freq, I can't drop it unless I drop my FSB too.
EDIT: Can I use that to OC my GC instead of CCC? Or I absolutely need an MSI card?

Are you talking about the Bios or Afterburner? PCI-e Frequency is in the bios.

I doubt it's the freq anyway, just wanted to be sure. Yes you can use Afterburner for everything, core and memory clocks, voltage, fans, etc. Everything. And with any brand card, and ATI/nVidia doesn't matter, it works.
