This way there will be airflow underneath the GPU so it stays cooler.Īll fan setups are a bit personal as well, e.g. Backdraw is to lose slot 3 ,if the GPU occupies 2 slots. If possible (depending on the amount of PCIe cards and height of the GPU), you could move the GPU to slot2 instead of slot 1. Intake and Boost A fan depending on NB diode (see screenshot) To keep all Temps low in the CPU compartment i'd recommend: set PSU depending on PSU supply 2 (see screenshot) set the PCI fan depending on PCIE ambient (see screenshot) remove PCI slot covers from unused PCI slots and leave it open. The PSU fan blows air not only through the PSU, but through a few slots above the drive bays too. This is above all caused by the heat the GPU generates. The construction of the cMP concerning airflow is very well thought and efficient, and leaving the side panel off is not recommended and will effect negatively (mainly) the CPU compartment Temps.Īs you may have noticed the HDDs (which generate heat themselves too) Temps increase from bay1 going up to bay4.
MACS FAN CONTROL SETTINGS KEEP WINDOW FROM OPENING HOW TO
For information on how to use the launchpad, go to Eye control basics in Windows. When you switch on eye control, the launchpad appears on the screen.
The Mac Pro 4,1 and 5,1 default fan settings (like most Macs) are aiming for very silent operation but can result in (too) high Temps. To turn on eye control, go to Settings > Ease of Access > Eye control and turn on the toggle.
