I've got an early 08 Mac Pro and according to iStat menus it's typical operating temperature for the CPUs are about 35-40c.
In Fan Control I have the lower threshold set to 35c so for the most part the fans stay at a pretty much silent 600-700rpm.
What annoys me that is say if I go stream an HD movie and the temp jumps to about 45c, the fans spin up to about 2500rpm and all of a sudden it's a ******* jet engine about to take off!!
So I was wondering is it okay to set the lower threshold higher than what I have now, say at around 50c? Think the CPUs should be able to take the heat?
