Bootcamp and fan speed with smcfancontrol

Your computer will control the fan speed. Don't worry about it.

 

If your computer gets too hot, it will simply shut off before any damage occurs.

 

lol - sort of like driving a car and saying "don't worry, the car will deploy an airbag if you hit a telephone poll"

 

So it's shutting off?

 

smcfancontrol only works when using OS X , it does nothing when running windows (except if you are using Parallels or VMware).

Windows is pretty late with switching on the fan. Besides Windows runs idle hotter than OS X.

Use MacFan0_65 to set manually a minimum speed.

Go to Control Panel - power options and set the minimum processor speed to either 2 or 3% - at that level it is at idle running at approx the same temprature as OS X.

Trubo mode really exagerates heat generation - you may not need it. You can turn it off by setting maximum processor speed to 99%.

If you are worried about overheating then switch the cooling state to passive rather than active (active relies on fan, passive throttles the CPU before using the fan)
