[QUOTE="hawkerman, post: 559235, member: 44805"] [b]Not really a problem with it overheating ?[/b] Thanks for your comments. I really don't think there is a problem with it overheating as all fans are going at maximumn speed. As mentioned I touch the case and front and neither are hot. The real issue is the fans and them going at contast maximumn sppeed. It is noisy. I have had 2 technicians look at it and both agreed that having all 6 fans reving is not a problem other than the fans wearing out prematurely, in fact they said it probably kept it cooler than normal. I found this and wandered if it may help [url]http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/G5/G5_drive_heat_tips.html[/url] Any comments or advice would be greatly appreciated. Kim [/QUOTE]
