CCC or wait for ATI Tool?

Is it even worth installing CCC right now or should I just wait for ATI Tool to support the new 4800's.
 
CCC works fine for overclocking and you can manually control the fan also (via editing an xml file).
 
Are we talking about a fan curve that reacts to Temp or just a single set fan speed. Its the one thing I really liked about Riva Tuner was building a fan curve. I havent ran ATI in a while and I remember lots of complaints about CCC. I assume its doing better?
 
CCC works fine for overclocking, the fan is set for auto by default but it appears to not go much over 15% which is too low. Manually setting the fan will lock in one speed which is not ideal. I expect that the next driver and/or BIOS will correct the fan speeds and also have it drop the core speed lower than 500 Mhz when idle. Really not a big deal as you can set the fan around 40-50% and probably not hear it and have a significant improvement.

How do you edit the fan speed????
My 4870s are way too hot.
Honestly I'm waiting for RivaTuner......I use it alot.
