The components are so jammed in these macs thermal concerns are probably the norm. Your graphics card is also under powered for pt 2019 imo. Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk |

Yeah the fans go 'Full-on Toasty'?? (Fans do not engage when I change tabs. However when I open the same tab again... Fans go full tilt boogie!) Just this minute found 'that' out. Basically, the fans blare out heat and noise - with the same intensity. Same as this GUI situation really! That's CRAZY! Last edited by jamesleonard; 07-07-2019 at 04:30 AM. Reason: Why is that?????????? |

Re: iMac fans starting to get hot and very noisy again!
Yes, it is CPU intensive.. however in this case we are guessing that GPU is failing

EDIT//: Just found out that the fans get noisy and hot on static images on *these* pages also - so it aint just the gifs!?

Looks like you're going to need a new video card. Still under AppleCare?

1. I have watched YouTube videos all afternoon and the iMac never made a sound, No heat, no noisy fan. NOTHING whatsoever! 2. Then… I went on Google maps..! '‘WOW, I’m telling you’' after zooming in to ‘Street view’ and zooming out (Aerial view) more-or-less for a minute, I thought the iMac was going to 'blow-up’ The noise it made was unbelievable and, the heat from the back vent was ‘literally’ blazing. 3. Exactly the same situation with Tumblr and Tumbex pages (static/dynamic or gif images), i.e.: ‘Noisy blaring fan’ and ‘blazing hot air’ So… YouTube is: CPU intensive and the others (including the Pro Tools GUI) are: GPU intensive? Would I be correct to assume this? Or is everything I have mentioned (above), CPU intensive, but, the GPU function only applies to number 2, and 3, as well as Pro Tools? Just want to get something straight in my head. Thanks Last edited by jamesleonard; 07-07-2019 at 02:30 PM. |
