[QUOTE="dtran086, post: 1392189, member: 215172"] Hey everyone, Can someone verify the number of fans on the iMac? I just bought a mid-2011 model and it gets pretty warm... I believe there should be one for the CPU, one for the HD, and one for the ODD right?? so 3 total..?? Also, if I install SMC FAN CONTROL and turn the fans up for all three devices, will this cause any problems?? it ONLY controls the fans right?? Should I only manipulate the fan for the CPU?? or is it OK to play with the fan on the ODD and the HDD as well... thank u very much! I just wanted to verify because I didn't wanna have the funs running so high and it might burn something...or damage something..I just bought the darn thing...Don't wanna screw it up! :) [/QUOTE]
