[QUOTE="DeviousDan, post: 1018124, member: 86454"] I assume the calibration puts the CPU's under load with the fans at a constant rate to gauge the efficiency of the cooling system. Then it adjusts the fan speeds for idle and load as required to stay under the maximum operating temp (which seems to be 88c). The fan speeds seemed to stay constant while the system was being calibrated... which took over half an hour. And yes i put thermal paste on the CPU's, arctic silver FTW! ;D [/QUOTE]
