My 3.06GHz iMac is making more noise than my previous 2.8 Extreme...
The Fans never kicked in at all with the last one, and (i presume) they haven't on this iMac neither.
However, the overall noise is noticeably louder. When I say loud, it is not massively so, but loud enough to be annoying in my silent office. I can hear it now just droning away...
I have the iStat widget and it reckons:
CPU A: 37
CPU B: 37
GPU: 46
GPU Diode: 51
GPU Heatsink: 44
HD Bay: 53
Power Supply: 68
Ambient: 18
CPU Fan: 1200
HD Fan: 1200
Do these figures sound about right? I'm still not convinced this iMac sounds right. Definitely noticeably louder than my last one. It's not as noticeable through the day because of surrounding noise but I do a lot of work during the night and this hum is doing my head in... Now who's droining on
