Get FannyWidget from the developer here (free)īoth of these utilities are installed as usual within Notification Center on the Mac, and after you have opened the individual app you can add the widget to Notification Center by opening the control panel, clicking on “Edit”, then adding the widgets and orientating them within the Notification Center panel as you see fit.

This tool is likely most useful for Mac laptop users but many desktop users like to know what their fan is doing and what temperature the CPU is running. The second utility is called Fanny, and it keeps an eye on fan speed and CPU temperature of the Mac, also within Notification Center. You can then click on any of the little activity icons to get further information about each. The 16 inch has a huge heatsink, and still this socery.The first is called Monit, and once added to Notification Center it offers a means of quickly seeing an overview of CPU activity, memory usage, disk activity, battery, and network activity. I don't get it, I feel so confused, the 16 inch model was desgined to reduce heat beacuse of problems in he 15 inch models. Repair centre said, when it comes to motherboards, they don't disclose any infromation as to why it failed. Just before my motherboard corrupted, I swear I had smelt something burning from my macbook, which I am guessing fried up some IC in the motherboard. I now installed this macs fan control, set the fans to kick in at a range of 50-80 degrees celcius, bought tips from amazon which attach at the back of mac to keep it at a lift for proper cooling.

Repair store said we need to get a new motherboard, which was so darn expensive, it's been working fine after getting the replacement of motherboard. Booked an apple appointment, they reset the HD, reinstalled the OS still same issue, only in safe mode the macbook would boot up properly and work fine. The laptop just got stuck into a boot loop and as soon as it started up it would freeze and shutdown. I generally use my laptop on a desk pad (rarely on my laps or beds).

Man, my motherboard on my MBP16 inch 2019 (base model) got messed up after 2 years of usage.
