You could lower or raise the fan speed of a component using the fan control fields. Just click in a field and type to change the value. You can rename device and fan names for better identification, and change the fan control value easily. The temperature of each component, as reported by the component or motherboard, and the fan speed is listed by the program. I ran it on several systems to get a feel for it it supports plenty of hardware components including processors, video cards, and motherboards. The program displays the temperature of components that it detected on start and the fan speed of those components. NET Framework 4.6 but can be run from any location.įanCtrl works similarly to Speedfan. For video card fans, I used MSI Afterburner, a free software for all video card manufacturers.įanCtrl is a free program for Windows. I used the free tool Speedfan about a decade ago to control fans on Windows PCs to reduce the noise these fans generated. Mainboard, in addition to the risk of burning your CPU, at higher Please be careful when using the fan control features of your Temperatures and sets the corresponding PWM outputs to the computed Reads its configuration from a file, then calculates fan speeds from Fancontrol - automated software based fan speed regulationįancontrol is a shell script for use with lm_sensors.While that is necessary to keep components from overheating, it is sometimes problematic because of the noise that these fans make.
So if you plan to use these components in 50 years, Temperatures there will be a higher wearout of your other hardwareĬomponents, too. Maybe you shouldn't use fancontrol at all. Slightly warmer, just be sure to have a temperature alarm and/or shutdownĬall, in case some fan fails, because you probably won't hear it anymoreįor easy configuration, there's a script named pwmconfig(8) In practice it doesn't seem to be a major issue, the fans will get Most fans aren't designed to be powered by a PWMed voltage. Alternatively you can write this file yourself using the Which lets you interactively write your configuration file forįancontrol. Various variables available for changing fancontrol's behaviour: Since most of you are going to use pwmconfig(8) script, theĬonfig file syntax will be discussed last. INTERVAL This variable defines at which interval in seconds the main loop ofįancontrol will be executed DEVPATH Maps hwmon class devices to physical devices.
