OK to run MBP fans all the time?

Post by doublecthemacman »

I have found a value of 2200 on both fans (MBP 13/Touchbar) keeps my computer cool in almost all of my usage patterns.  It is inaudible to me as well.

Is there any real risk in running both fans all the time?

Hi,

There's no risk, but it may decrease the lifetime of the fan(s)
