44734 2002-04-20 05:24:00 As far as I am aware, the CPU is never put into a sleep or low state, so the fan must always run. Can't help on temp. My beast is not that modern!!

44735 2002-04-20 05:25:00 you do not want the cpu fan to turn off even in suspend mode.

as far as temps go what is idle temp, load temp and case temp?

44737 2002-04-21 00:56:00 heh heh, this is where you see the difference between intel and AMD cpus. My 1GHz P3 fan turns off in suspend. Now if I could only aquire a case fan that runs off a motherboard header I could actually shut the damn thing up completely.... ;) Guest (0)
