Re: Macs Fan Control 1.2.0 beta 2

By any chance can we have all the temperature sensors listed in Mac Fan Control for the Retina MBPs. Seems disappointing that it only supports 11, when other software, such as iStat Menus and others read 25.

Attached iStat Menus as an example.

Re: Optimal settings Macbook Pro (8,1)

I would point settings to look at the left fins on the heat sink. iStat Menus has 25 different temperate readouts on the retina MBP machines, Mac Fan Control only lists 11, and the heatsink temperature is one that is missing.

Don't do this. Apple use MagLev fans, there is no friction as there is no central shaft or bearings.
