when i had my first card under water with mcw60 using stock plate i didnt have the fan plugged in, gpu was hitting 37c in cod4 and vrm was low 70's
with asus top bios and 815/925-850/1000clocks I leave the fans at about 30-45% depending on room temps I have never seen more than low 60's on vrms and usually in mid 50's, the fans are way quieter without the shrouds on the cards for whatever reason.
