• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

smcfancontrol and i5

SMCfancontrol test on MBP i5:

I don't see any real problems, no kernel panics or anything. In fact, googling doesn't bring up any mention of widespread issues really, and this thread pops up on the first page of google when searching "SMCfancontrol i5" which doesn't really make me think there are any issues between the two because of how much google would be saturated with posts about it. In fact I found a couple mentions of people using it on an i5 just fine.

So I dunno what that poster was talking about? :confused:

curious to hear the answer as well. also wondering if the reasons it shouldn't be used on i5 apply to older procs as well.
