Increased fan speeds

Post by loukingjr »

I don't know if anyone else has noticed this or is having the issue. but since installing 3.1.6 and some of the newer Linux distros: PCLinuxOS 2010, ubuntu 10.04 etc... it seems there is more of a cpu load than previous versions causing my fans to kick on a lil more often. nothing serious, just curious.

Your Curiosity is valid.But may be your fan have not all the speed before & after Installing 3.1.6. Sometimes It gets the speed what it actually have.It happens to Central Processing unit to consume/provide more Power to some large Programs,that is why your Fan speed Increased suddenly As I hope.
