I have a G4 MDD dual 1.25 which I use for the internet and mail etc - has
four internal hard drives and over a period of time the cpu temp has risen
to the point where even at idle the main fan kicks up a noisy notch - the
cpu temp for the kick up seems to be around the 56 celsius mark - idle cpu
temp is around 58C and my HD closest to the cpu has a temp of 43C compared
to the other three in the low thirties.
The increased fan noise annoyed me to the point of trying to do
something about it so yesterday I removed the heatsink from the cpu, cleaned
the arctic silver from the heatsink and cpu heads and applied arctic
ceramique instead as I had some lying around.
Thanks for the information, while thinking about getting a MDD i have heard
that they were rather noisy which put me off.
