1. A method for controlling temperatures in an information handling system, the method comprising:
- receiving a desired threshold value;
determining if a current real-time system value exceeds the desired threshold value;
determining if a power shedding mode is enabled;
if the power shedding mode is enabled, adjusting power supplied to the information handling system; and
if the power shedding mode is not enabled, dynamically adjusting a fan speed of a cooling fan associated with the information handling system.
