Abstract
A method is provided for dynamically controlling fan speed of a computing system during boot and reboot. The method may include receiving an ambient temperature from a sensor by a controller. The method may also include controlling speed for one or more fans dynamically based upon the ambient temperature using a dynamic algorithm during boot and reboot of the computing system. The dynamic algorithm may include a function for the fan speed of the one or more fans based upon the ambient temperature.
