Hello all
I just got a new 2.8 quad core imac, 27". Its great although i feel the fans are noisy. Its constant whirring, like one of the fan blades is clipping on something. It doesnt sound like a HDD noise and its from the moment it turns on to the moment i turn it off, always constant, never differs.
I installed smc and get these readings -
OD - 1000rpm
HDD - 1099rpm
CPU - 939rpm
These, i think, are pretty normal. Any ideas? Tried an SMC reset and resetting the PRAM (which sorted it for a few seconds, then back to normal...) to no avail. It sounds like the fan is central, possibly to the left as when i push against the apple logo on the front of the imac it makes it louder.
Any ideas are great, thanks
