[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1925576, member: 204485"] I feel obliged as a long time Macs Fan Control user to point out that the general purpose of the utility is to keep the device cool by increasing the fan speeds at lower temperatures ie. earlier than the system might by concentrating priority on say the GPU temp rather than CPU. This is beneficial for eg. graphically demanding games. I cannot imagine how it could have been helpful in your situation. Not to say it isn't a very handy utility, it is and can always be left on "Auto". [/QUOTE]
