So here I am, trying to be helpful with some advice on CPU fan speeds on a C2D system and start quoting the specs from Intel's C2D CPU specification literature, which says that the CPU fan speed is lowest below 30C, then ramps up and reaches maximum fan speed at 38C.
I didn't think to do the math at the time. Being in the 'states, I think only in Fahrenheit. Then after noticing the advice wasn't particularly helpful I did do the math...
SO let me get this straight, Intel thinks maximum CPU fan speed should be used when the CPU is 38C, or a slightly warm to the touch 100.4F, "oh dear, my CPU has a mild fever"?!?!?!
ARE THEY SERIOUS?
