vga fan speed

i have a problem with heat with my gfx card, i have a 6600gt with a stock fan, games just randomly freeze, so is there a way to increase vga fan speed, if i put my hand over the fan i could barely feel the airflow
thanx

You don't need to feel the air, assuming you're feeling at the right place. As long as your graphics card hasn't been giving you artifacts (it should, before it freezes) or overheating really badly, you should think some other problem first.
