Re: Thermals Check out iStat, it gives you the ability to set a fan curve and that has helped quite a bit with my laptops Thermals. I found the highest rpm I could run without hearing the fans and set the two lowest points in the curve to keep it at/under that point and I almost never hear my fans anymore. Only time I really hear them now is when something is compiling and even then it's much more bearable since I keep the highest rpm limited to 80/85%.

Thanks but I tried this a long time ago - it does help with random tasks yoyoing the fans (which was extremely annoying) but running a device emulator + Android studio and a build service sends the laptop in to 747 mode - the only way I found to solve this is use Volta and disable turbo boost (I'm not sure if under-volt is working properly sometimes it seems to help sometimes it doesn't - I haven't actually measured)
