    The fans ramp up when needed and the temperature is properly controlled without any extra programs.


    In my case, without manually adjusting fan speed via the iMacFanCtrl tool, after about half an hour of normal use (without major commitments for the CPU) the temperature systematically rises from 45°C (just after boot) to 78-85°C and the Northbrige controller also reaches beyond 90°C. In this situation, I do not hear the fans start automatically and I suppose that in such temperature conditions hardware damages would be almost inevitable.

    In your case, at what temperatures do the fans automatically increase?

    Probably Frank could clarify our doubts about the automatic adjustment of the fan speed to the temperature increase.
