so does anyone know any procedures off hand that keep the fans running at about 5500? I was thinking burning a DVD or doing some processor-intensive .mp4 encoding, but who knows if those things will be plausible. So ideas for that would be appreciated, and thanks for all the replies.

Open up terminal and type in "yes > /dev/null | yes > /dev/null" without quotes that will rack up the processor usage to ~100% or ~200% depending on how you calculate it which will of course jack up for fans
