kass Posted July 5, 2021 Report Share Posted July 5, 2021 My PC is not a beefy one (GTX 1660ti, i5 9600k, 16gig memory). With both the Integra and G1000 SR22s my PC fan is continuously running to the point I am so worried, I don't fly these planes more than half an hour. This doesn't happen with any of the other planes I have (TBM by Hotstart, IXEG737, AFL Kingair350 and C172 to name a few of the ones I have). Is there a reason why this is so? I appreciate your input. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cameron Posted July 5, 2021 Report Share Posted July 5, 2021 Fans are made to cool your computer down. Your computer is processing lots of data, thus creating heat. Fans running are not a bad thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kass Posted July 5, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2021 Thank you for taking the time to reply to my concern. I do understand the purpose of the fans and that it does run continuously but at a low speed and quietly. I guess I didn't make my concern clear enough. It just seemed odd to me with the SR22s the loud and continuous fan was making me concerned. Anyway I used a software to see what is happening. The SR22s use a lot of resources and the temperature passes 75 degrees Celsius increasing the fan speed. My other planes such as Hot Start TBM never gets past 62 degrees Celsius even with SOCAL ORBX running (outside ORBX area 57 degrees Celsius), which I might add is unthinkable with TorqueSim SR22s. Once again thank you Cameron. I do appreciate it. TorqueSim SR22s will be stored away until I upgrade my PC sometime in the future. I don't like noisy computer.
