I just got back my mac mini from the apple service centre today, the logic board was replaced due to a problem booting the mini...Now, the mac mini can boot up as normal...but, the heatsink fan seems to be running at full blast all the time and it is darn noisy...

It this normal after a logic board replacement?... shocking.gif

no it is not normal. take it back and get them fix it again. maybe they did not plug in a thermal sensor or a sensor is damaged. or you got a faulty logic board. take it back to them for a check.
