libreleah, 2 months ago I added a patch to Libreboot yesterday by Mate Kukri, author of the Dell OptiPlex 9020 MT/SFF coreboot port in Libreboot. See: https://browse.libreboot.org/lbmk.git/commit/?id=6da91df6b9473628b02f4d5a1e0a801a49a2e6da It adds PWM fan controls, so fans speed up when the system gets hot. Previously, fans ran at a constant low speed but my tests of stock cooling with 65w CPU, and 90w CPU (i7-4790k) with my cooling mods, showed temps about 85-90c, within spec. EDIT: Previous stress test (prior to Mate's patch) here: https://mas.to/@libreleah/112184558614560980 Temps are lower now:
