[QUOTE="tkobvious, post: 1610450, member: 334753"] Ok, I don't want to jump the gun here but holy freaking ****, the second the fan control program finished installing, my fan slowed to 1400 rpm and is holding! I was nervous and working fast because the moment the computer is finished booting up, the fan speed was consistently ramping up beyond 4000 rpm and then inevitable shut down usually within about 5 minutes. I have had it up and running now for about 20 minutes. I was skeptical because I had already installed a fan controller called smcFanControl. But it only had values for minimum fan speed, not maximum. This Macs Fan Control is proving to be a life saver to my iMac! I can't thank you enough for recommending. The strange thing is I didn't set a maximum fan speed, but the second it was installed, it brought the cpu fan speed back to the normal 1400 rpm. This turned into a 30 second fix. Free too! (definitely have to donate if this keeps on chugging along) Thanks chscag for bringing it to my attention and pm-r for reiterating it. [/QUOTE]
