M1 MacBook Pro hitting 102 degrees Celsius

[rapidxc]

Hello everyone,
I was rendering a clip on adobe after effects and was keeping an eye on TG pro for temperatures. My M1 MacBook Pro, 16gb/ 1tb started ramping the fans slowly until it got to around 2000 rpm. The cpus hit 100, 101, and 102 degree Celsius and the fan is running so quiet!

After letting it sit for around 20 minutes, the fan still doesn't speed up. It stays below 2500 rpm. Is this normal? Aren't the fans supposed to speed up? And if I want to, I can manually increase the speed in tg pro, so I don't think my fan is defective.

I'm not familiar with such apps, so I have a few questions:
Why does it show only two efficiency cores, but seven performance onces? Why are there two entries for GPU an why three entries for the M1 with different temperatures?

Those are all the different temperature sensors on the MacBook that tg pro shows

I don’t see anything out of the ordinary here. The cores most likely operate on their internal power limit, the SoC temperature is perfectly fine, the chassis is cool. What’s the point in ramping up the fans in this situation? The cooling system does exactly what it’s supposed to do.

Yeah, you have a point there. The chassis remains warm, never gets hot really. Can you run cinebench r23, multi code and let me know approximately when the fan turns on?

Because most youtube videos say that the fan doesn't spin for the most part of the test and only kicks in at the end of the 10 min mark.
On my macbook pro, the fan starts spinning after just a 1 minute and 30 seconds at a low rpm. I just want to make sure that my macbook isn't defective

It certainly spins, they probably mean that it’s not audible until after 10 min…

Sounds just about right.
