[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1789080, member: 46727"] Two reasons not to use a Fan Control App to boost the fan's RPM: 1. Increases the noise level 2. Fans wear out faster If you happen to have an iMac that you changed out the hard drive and neglected to compensate for thermal sensing, then the Fan Control app can keep the fans RPM down to normal levels. Macs Fan Control works real well for that purpose. Hey.. it's your machine and what you do with it is your business but giving out advice to others without a full explanation and implications is not good advice. ;D [/QUOTE]
