Macs Fan Control starts to increase the fan speed at 50C and raises it to the maximum RPM at 80C.
#Smcfancontrol yosemite mac#
I set my reference temperatures to 50C and 80C because that's what I used with Lobotomo Fan Control and it keeps the CPU cooler than the default Mac software. I selected the CPU Diode since the temperature readings looked the same as reported by the iStat Nano widget. 11 temperature sensors were available for selection as the controller. I set it up to run with sensor-based control on my 2011 Mini. Essentially this disables Macs Fan ControlĢ: constant RPM value (like smcFanControl)ģ: temperature sensor-based fan speed (like Lobotomo Fan Control) It can be set up to use one of 3 fan control methods:ġ: automatic, to use the default Mac fan control. I'm trying out Macs Fan Control and it looks very good. I have now de-installed Lobotomo Fan Control and reset SMC which on a Mini is a shut down and remove power for a few seconds and then restart. The closest to FanControl would be MacsFanControl because it allows you to set a fan to base off a specific sensor. This set me off to find a fix and I fixed it with MacRumors (that is how I joined ) It was bad RAM. After i installed Yosemite it broke and i had to uninstall it, and so my crashing problem returned as normal. I used FanControl because it reduced my random crashing (that time i had no idea what it was). smcFanControl has the default at ~4000 rather than the correct 2000 so it is partially usable. The true maximum (for my 2009 MBP) is a bit above 7000.įanControl is completely broken. In smcFanControl the Higher RPM preset (comes with app) is set to ~9000 RPM instead of 4000, and it allowed me to set the fans to the true maximum :O. FanControl and smcFanControl have not been updated. The ones that I know were updated are Temperature Gauge Pro, Macs Fan Control, and iStat menus. So I chose another sensor.Yosemite broke all fan control apps. My guess is there is no heat sensor in the HDD I installed. The default sensor was pointing to the HDD. I tried setting limits on fan speed of each and soon realised it was the CPU fan that was the noisy one. It showed me that there we 3 fans on my system:

They had a free and usable version of the software. More Searchįinally after googling on Yahoo (I know!) using keywords ‘imac noisy fan’, I came across Macs Fan Control. I thought of upgrading to El Capitan, but reviews on App Store pointed out that Xcode + El Capitan on 4 GB RAM is a disaster.

Since I am running Mac OS X Yosemite instead of Mac OS X El Capitan, I could not get the latest Xcode.

I googled around for more tools and came across smcFanControl. This seemed too low to cause a noisy flag. $ cat /tmp/spindump.txt | grep "Fan speed" Spindump analysis written to file /tmp/spindump.txt Sampling all processes for 10 seconds with 10 milliseconds of run time between samples I tried the in-built spin dump to check at what speed the fan was running. I am running Mac OS X Yosemite 10.10.5 (14F27). After I changed the HDD, the fan started to run at full speed. The HDD of my iMac (24-inch, Mid 2007) crashed and I had to get a new one.
