Torque3d is the only application that makes my video card runs at hyper speed

Well, the title says. I never heard any video card making this much noise before in any other engine, game or 3d program. As soon as I fire up torque3d, my video card starts to run at ultra-speed as if it's agony:P

Q9550 with gfx285, windowsxp3.

It doesn't matter on the scene, empty ground with sun makes the video card go crazy...just wondering why it might be?

My gts250 temperature - with associated/equal fan speed percentage
BL: 56 degrees
AL: 65 degrees

Which is about the same as Crysis.

it's your card cooling itself off. monitor you temps like Steve if you feel your going to have a meltdown. i also have a gts 250 evga. different cards have different stock fan settings, i had a BFG 250 had to return it, fan wasn't programmed properly, black screen when playing game for 5 mins or so. got the evga, same drivers, no problems, fan revs up sometime on GPU sensitive apps.
