"Wont control my laptop fans, but still great software."
Pros
This little program has lots of different temperature readings, and can even monitor and run diagnostic tests on your hard drive too.
Cons
My laptop is a Toshiba Qosmio x505-Q860, and I was hoping to find a fan speed controller program that would control the internal fans. This program didnt see the fans at all on my laptop. That is the only bad thing about it I saw.
Summary
While it wont control my laptops internal fans like I had hoped, its still a great find. It monitors a number of things, including many different temperatures in your PC. As a gamer, I like to keep track of the various temps on my big PC and especially my laptop. So all in all even though it doesnt see my laptops internal fans to control them, it has many other great features and can test your hard drive for you so Im glad I downloaded it. Some of the sections mention its still in early stages of developement so maybe my toshiba laptop fan issue with it will be added later on. 4/5 stars, recommended.
