Mac Pro fan monitor

[trainguy77]

Is there any app out there that can monitor how many RPMs the fans are doing in the mac pro? And what would you guys suggest I use for monitoring temp right now i am using "temperature monitor" as its the only one that works that i have found.

Yes, hardware monitor works quite well with them.

Google "Hardware Monitor" or "iStat Pro"

Not sure if they are Universal or not...

iStat Pro is what I tried first It does not even bring up the temps not considering the fans. I will give Hardware Monitor a shot.

I also use Hardware Monitor. Version 4 added a bunch of sensors for the Mac Pro. 🙂 I had an x.264 encode going with the following.

iStat Pro doesn't work with the sensors on the Mac Pro. Only the very latest version of Hardware Monitor/Temperature Monitor works.

Worth every penny. Works nicely on my Macbbok Pro too.

Ok I'm convinced haha, I'll have to wait for my next pay check (yes, i am really that broke)

I think i may as well buy it since it supports fans as well. 😀

I wonder if I can get a commission 🙂
