So, the problem seems to be, that the case fans stayed idle, like said before the fans were on [Smart Fan] and should have increased with the temperature. The CPU fan did, the rear and front ones didn't. Maybe they took the motherboard temperature as measure? Anyway, bought myself a fan hub (https://www.arctic.de/en/Case-Fan-Hub/ACFAN00175A) and used the CPU fan as indicator and now the case fans seem to rise in speed accordingly.

What is strange is, that unraid will notify me if disks are to hot, but my CPU can melt for all it cares. I only stumbled over it by chance. And shouldn't there be a blue screen if the temperarture reaches a critical level?

At 57°C the heat pipes and the fins feel hot to the touch. The room temperature is at 20-30°C, and there are is enough space in front and back of the case. I checked the bios and all fans were on [Smart Fan] (100% at 78°C), as the CPU fan seems to increase at load, I put all the case fans on [Full On]. It doesn't feel like they are on 100%. If I remember correctly than opening the case didn't effect the temperature much (+- 1-2°C). Using an online stress test (https://cpux.net/cpu-stress-test-online) in a VM: Closing the case increased the temperature from 69°C to 77°C. The case fans didn't seem to increase in speed, holding a small paper at the fan, the paper moves 10° maybe 15° angle. Hm, the VM uses 12 HTs (see picture) and does not increase the temperature in such a rapid way. Stash on the other hand uses 16 HTs (see the grey ones in the picture) and reaches critical temperature fast. It seems the case fans don't work as they should. Tried using pwmconfig: Found the following devices: hwmon0 is coretemp hwmon1 is nct6776 Found the following PWM controls: hwmon1/pwm1 current value: 127 hwmon1/pwm2 current value: 127 Giving the fans some time to reach full speed... Found the following fan sensors: hwmon1/fan1_input current speed: 0 ... skipping! hwmon1/fan2_input current speed: 0 ... skipping! There are no working fan sensors, all readings are 0. Make sure you have a 3-wire fan connected. You may also need to increase the fan divisors. So what can I do? Should I buy one of those fancy old school fan controller?

Hello! Everytime I integrate several scenes inside stash (https://github.com/stashapp/stash) my CPU temperature rises over 100 °C and slowly climbs higher until stash is done. The docker container uses CPU core 0-7 (and HT 14-21) up to 100% utilization. Shouldn't the CPU throttle when it gets to hot? Is it somehow possible to activate thermal throttling? The CPU fan seems to get louder, the case fans however don't seem to change, hard to judge. Is there a way to create a load, to stress test the CPU in unraid, so I can reproduce the temperature increase? Any good CPU cooler upgrade that is tolerable quiet, the NH-U12DX i4 doesn't seem to fit (3mm argh) and 2011-3 narrow ILM makes it hard to find something.
