The fans in a max studio never actually turn off… they’re just really really quiet, and I’ve never managed to actually make the fans come off idle, even maxing out all cores.

It takes sustained usage for the heatsink to saturate, and then the fans ramp up quickly. They do stay next to silent otherwise.
