![]() What's quite surprising is the thermal limit, it seems like it doesn't want to go past 85☌ whereas every other Apple CPU I've seen gets close to the max junction temperature (usually 105☌) before the fans start kicking in to keep it from throttling. General temperatures, power usage, fan speed, and other stats:ĬPU Usage (left) and fan Speed, around 2000 rpm (right) This is what my stats looked like during the hour that I checked in with it: Definitely more than necessary but my fans still didn't ramp up after a few hours of testing. To stress test the CPU I tried running 16 instances of yes > /dev/null &, play an 8K video on YouTube, and compress a video on Handbrake. It would never reach the maximum of 4845 rpm (100%) unless I manually set it using iStat Menus. ![]() Using iStat Menus I noticed that it would usually stay around its base speed of 1800 rpm (0% of the fan speed range), and go up to 2000 (7%) rpm under heavy load. I noticed that no matter how much I used it, the fans barely ramped up. I have a 2014 Mac mini with an Intel Core i5 processor. ![]()
