These are my usual temperature readings and fan speeds in "Reduced" processor performance, for future reference: Has anyone else ever noticed this behaviour? I can replicate this in Tiger (10.4.11) and Leopard (10.5.8) using the same versions of both apps so it would seem as though the ambient temperature sensors only get read once at boot time rather than being polled at intervals like the the remaining sensors (HDD, CPU core, Backside and Drive Bay). It will then show an updated value - usually ~40✬ which seems reasonably accurate. This value doesn't get updated after hours of use until I reboot no matter into which OS. When I boot the machine from cold, both "iStat" or "Temperature Monitor" agree and correctly show the ambient temperature readings for both CPUs at actual room temperature as expected, which is usually 23✬. I was just hoping to compare experiences with other users concerning the following behaviour though: I have recently bought a second hand "Early 2005" DP 2.7 Ghz G5 Powermac and everything has been working perfectly for the last couple of months - no traces of liquid coolant spills or odd fan behaviour so far (fingers crossed). It's been a good while since I last posted on this forum and much has changed since.
