BioShock Infinite at 2560 x 1440 becomes CPU bound with the Fury~Vega GPUs but was run at this resolution in order to not cripple the older hardware due to its limited vRAM capacity. The Radeon HD 6870 couldn't run this game out-of-the-box due to being bound to OpenGL 3.3.

Does the fan run full speed all the time with open drivers (which suggests BIOS isn't setting up the fan table correctly) or only when the card is under heavy load ?

From what I can test on my machine with HD5850 I see that my old fglrx (catalyst 15.9) driver in many games perform better than open source Radeon + mesa 17.2/4. Don't know why. I still use Mageia 5 distro with fglrx because on any distro with Radeon and Mesa, my GPU fan working at 100% speed and noise is unbearable...
Reported bug here https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=101987 but looks like nobody care about fixing bugs for old gpu :/ Maybe anyone have similar issue and know how to fix it?

I mean, there were comments where attempts to fix fan management through RE fglrx were blocked earlier. (in the individual case non-RE fix ended up being made hough) This means fglrx actually at times did it better and it would be useful to use the existing engineering knowledge from it
