[QUOTE="baggss, post: 1489966, member: 6762"] I've been using SMC and Temperature Monitor (and Temperature Monitor lite) for several years now. I manually kick the fan speed on my iMac up to a medium setting when converting video and do find I get a slightly faster conversion time when my CPU is cooler even by a few degrees. Temperature monitor just helps me make sure the CPU and other internal components aren't suffering from too much heat. As seen from the above posts many here disagree with the use of them, but hey, to each their own. I like them and will likely continue to use them for the foreseeable future. [/QUOTE]
