Allegedly, on or about 05 April 2014, Rafnews sent:

Sounds like it does have controllable fans, then.  There's a chance that
it requires the OS to control them.  Though some things seem to manage
it with the hardware (e.g. a computer sitting at the BIOS boot screen
might start up with the fans whizzing fast, but slow down once the
temperature sensors are checked).  On the computers that I have with
speed controlled fans, they've "just worked" for me, without having to
do anything.

The next question would be is the computer blasting out hot air or cool
air?  Hot air indicates that something is doing hard work.  Cool air
indicates that the fans are needlessly revving.

As the blunt person had said, please don't top post on this list.  If
your mail client makes that next-to-impossible, consider replying
without quoting any of the prior message, instead.
