Can someone explain some safe settings to use with Macs Fan Control? 
I don't know what's safe; I know that if I use it, it overrides the normal SMC 
settings. 
I know that I can just run one fan at max all the time, and cool my mac a 
little more, but that's not necessarily a good thing.

Also, is there a temperature over time graphing program that works with modern 
macs? 
I used to use Temperature Monitor, but it doesn't work with modern macs, and 
said that the method it used to use to get temps no longer worked; but now I 
have two programs (a dashboard plugin, and this) that do give temps, and in 
this case, quite a lot of them.
