Temperature monitoring software for a Hackintosh

[racolvin]

Anyone know if there is anything like SpeedFan for the Mac?

iStat Pro. It's free and it's a dashboard widget. It's very nice, actually.

EDIT: It's for the Mac, never tried it on a Hackintosh specifically, but it might work depending on the hardware.

iStat doesn't work with hackintoshes, at least not my hackintosh. I however am also looking for a solution... not for temperature monitoring purposes since I am confident that the temps are ok, but rather for fan control, so more like smcfancontrol, but for the hack.

Well, as a temperature monitor that certainly seems to work on my hackintosh... now if we can just get fan control.

fan control is my major gripe with my current hackintosh build.

for my next build I'm building a core i7 beast to be my main workstation, when I do that I'm getting fans with hardware speed controls so I can control them independent of the software.
