- create fan presets for different activities
When to choose
- you need to manually control or monitor fans on an Intel or Apple Silicon Mac
- you run Windows via Boot Camp on a Mac and need fan control there
- you replaced a drive or component and need sensor-based fan control to manage heat or noise
When to avoid
- you need fan control on non-Apple hardware
