I'd be happy to let my Pis idle around 50-60☌, and only have the little whiny fans come on beyond those temperatures. The one thing I hate most about those little HATs is the fact the fans spin up around 40☌, and then turn off a few seconds later, once the temperature is back down to 39 or so, all day long. Passive mode feels great for temp below 40deg.I am starting to rack up more Pis ( quite literally) using the official Pi PoE HAT to save on cabling. I’m still wondering if there is any way to change limits from 80 deg to some lower value, so the body does not feel warm and fans start to run earlier. I always used a desktop PC where fans run all the time and temps basically aren’t the case for me. It’s my first laptop and i’m still gettin’ to it. So it looks like, i’ve panicked to quickly and fans are running properly. When temps go up above 80deg, then fans start to cool and even speed up a little, then the temp start falling to 40 deg, and when the load disappears, the fans turn off. I made another test, this time with “always on fan” turned off in BIOS and the same cpu-x benchmark for 6 threads for 3 mins. I think it’s not the most demanding benchmark anyways (maybe?) The benchmark was prime number for 3 minutes and 6 cores. I’ve checked the boxes in gkrellm and monitored it while running cpu-x benchmark. All other options during the scan had no sensors found. It seems to appear this way every time i run sensors-detect.

Using driver `i2c-piix4’ for device 0000:00:14.0: AMD KERNCZ SMBus The only thing found is:ĭo you want to probe the I2C/SMBus adapters now? (YES/no): yes Well, sensors-detect didn’t find any new sensors.
