Fan Control for Mac

Beware of this app! It can damage your SMC!. Seemed like a nice concept and it really kept my temperatures down on my rMBP up until I booted into Windows. Windows 8 started acting strange; menus would lag, Metro would freeze, fans wouldn't come on under gaming, and I wouldn't be able to connect to WiFi. I couldn't figure out what the problem was, so I just tried uninstalling this app, and Windows started behaving normally again! However, even after multiple SMC resets, now smcFanControl (which I used prior to this app) doesn't change the fan speed, which makes me inclined to think that my SMC is permanently altered. So, it's a nice concept (I really liked that you can adjust the temps vs. fan speed graph) but in practice it really doesn't work. And now, the older app I used doesn't work and the fans don't speed up as fast, so my SMC is damaged. Beware of this app...

Nice!. When I render animations in Blender, the Temp goes up to 81.5 C but the fans seemed to stay around 2000rpm. I doubted this was healthy, and thanks to your program, I've made the fans go up to 5000rpm, and it keeps the temp of my computer to about 70 C! Pros: I found the settings to be easy to manipulate and intuitive Cons: Uninstalling does require you to fish out files and reset the System Management Controller (SMC).
