[QUOTE="JollyRogerBay, post: 1630776, member: 340611"] In that case, I'll keep using smcFanControl. I've currently been using the command line controls to limit the maximum fan speed to around 2500-3000 RPM, and the program reports a temperature between the mid 40s to low 50s Celcius. Is that a safe temperature and fan speed? Most of my Macs before this one are whisper quiet with just the minimum fan speed, and I'd like to have this one be as quiet as possible. Any suggestions?
