scotty pro Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 I would like to monitor my temps with HWSensors and have downloaded it from Github. Upon going to install the installer says it will install the FakeSMC.kext. I am running opencore and use virtualSMC, will FakeSMC screw up my Mojave installation or will it not affect it. Also, would the sensors even work with virtualSMC.

noah977 Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 I'd also like to know the best setup for this. So far, just Istat. Quote Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/345484-question-about-hwsensors-and-opencore/#findComment-2748255 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slice Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 I may notice that HWSensors3 is not HWSensors and using HWMonitorSMC.app as well as HWMonitorSMC2.app which is also reliable for VirtualSMC if you want.

Warbands Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 I would love all of my 14 cores to show up under apps like iStats Menu ( latest version ). I only end up seeing 10 of my 14 cores. Activity Monitor shows all of my cores/threads correctly. While on the subject I wish my GPU temp would come up correctly as well. When I had used Fake it sorta worked, when I moved over to VirtualSMC all the GPU stuff basically went away.

Slice Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 Did you tested this application? https://github.com/CloverHackyColor/HWMonitorSMC2/releases Quote Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/345484-question-about-hwsensors-and-opencore/#findComment-2748507 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warbands Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 Yes, it does show all my cores, but it is a bit unwieldy compared to iStats Menu Quote Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/345484-question-about-hwsensors-and-opencore/#findComment-2749164 Share on other sites More sharing options...
