Changes into this release:
All fan-control GUI tools:
- New fan UI to simplify control and better understanding:
- Fan control is per-fan, so check boxes removed from fan list, and it's moved to left
- Instead, check boxes into sensor list - so now you can see what sensors checked to control selected fan
- Some buttons renamed to reflect what they really do
- Tray icon tooltip handling modified - now apps uses significantly less CPU.
- Monitoring procedure optimized, and CPU usage decreased if active.
- G-mode handling optimized - it's now simpler and handle profile switch better.
