[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 951031, member: 24098"] I'm not sure why people feel the need to obsess over temperatures and fan speeds. Your computer (and all modern computers) has a built-in Systems Management Controller (SMC) that will automatically engage the fans and adjust the speeds as necessary. Yes, modern notebooks run hot when doing processor-intensive tasks. These programs are more geared toward people who are overclocking their systems to run outside of normal specs. In those cases, it is necessary to "second guess" what the SMC is doing because it's not being run within tolerances. The principle is very similar to someone who performs extensive engine modifications in a car - custom ECU programing is often needed to keep the engine running properly. My advice would be to turn off the monitoring and enjoy your machine and stop worrying about this kind of stuff. If there was any kind of a problem, your computer would shut itself down (fail safes are built directly into the chips themselves). [/QUOTE]
