And even beats the other software in functionality too.

Big thanks to Jay for the rather quick explanation and to Rem0o for creating the software. I had to go through 6h of troubleshooting why my SSD wouldn't let me install windows with all 8 fans inside the case going at max RPM, and when I finally managed to install this, it was showing percentages working, but the fans weren't responding. So it can also be used to troubleshoot. Actually hearing saver for me. I can still hear the airplane inside the room in my head.

Just found this - instantly downloaded - set it up - works like a charm - and donated directly afterwards - very helpful. Thank you Jay

As a software developer, I appreciate your support for these guys!

Just to clarify in case anyone gets confused. The "max" function on the "mix" curve selects the "max" fan percentage. NOT the max temperature. For example: if the GPU was 40C but you set it to spin fans at 100%... And the CPU was at 80C and you set it to run fans at 30%... The mix set to "max" would favor GPU and spin at 100% even though the GPU is cooler

@TheDarkestSmurf

So, I want to control the speed of the intake fan blowing air directly towards my GPU to be controlled either by CPU temp, with the rest of my case fans like it normally would, or by GPU temp, for when the GPU is running hotter than the CPU. They both usually hover around 36-40°C when idle, depending on ambient temperature. Shouldn't setting identical fan curves in Fan Control for both CPU und GPU achieve that and circumvent the scenario you described?

Jay! Thank you for this, I have a CoolerMaster q500l a relatively small case, called by other owners as a "hotbox". This software helped me get CPU temps down, from 88-90C to 66-70C, I wanted to get a new CPU cooler since the one i currently use is 7 years old, and was used with my previous 6600K now used with the 11600k. This saved me a lot of money.

Been using it for a year or so, and was flabbergasted that one guy managed to *finally* come up with a sleek and intuitive all-in-one fan (or pump) control interface. No more proprietary, RGB-infested bloatware by ASUS, MSI, EVGA etc. The fact that you can customize the GUI so deeply is the icing on top. It's so good, I just had to donate.

in bios, do you leave fan as AUTO?

I love FanControl! I've been using it since 2019. I have one suggestion for people that use it though. Open the program, click the three-dots, then click sensor settings and uncheck "Storage" monitoring. I found that having this monitoring turned on would make it difficult for me to unmount drives at times (I have a dual-SATA drive dock and a couple of USB docks). Simply unchecking this option fixed the issue entirely. I highly highly recommend FanControl though! My favorite feature is setting up custom curves that will link, for example, the speed of exhaust fans to whatever is the highest temperature in the PC (GPU or CPU) so that there will always be enough air exiting the case when there is a lot of heat being generated.

This software is awesome!! Thanks for the share guys. Perfect time to implement this now that I'm upgrading my cpu. Now I can make sure my temps are more accurate.

Thank you so much for this video! I bought a new PC and for the past two days some of the fans have been running at 100% and it was driving me crazy. This instantly made a huge difference and should let those fans survive much longer.

this is EXACTLY how i want my case fans to act. have a curve for each hot component (gpu/cpu) and just take the highest value of those curves for the case fans. its brilliant!

Have been using an Aqua Computer Aquaero 5 XT USB Fan Controller for the past 8 years with their software to achieve the same level of fan control using both GPU and CPU temperatures. It's great that this software has come along to provide similar functionality without requiring separate hardware.

Been using this for about 6 months now with little issues. I love the target mix that chooses between my custom curve for cpu or gpu depending on which is hotter, and setting my tray icon to display the average temp. Every once in a while the gui will report missing fans and offer to rescan the system, but usually reloading the profile fixes it. Also, if you install the updated version it may run both the older and newer version unless you uninstall or disable the start on boot of the older version. Glad you found them and are giving the dev a shout out!

Just want to say thanks to Jay for sharing this with us. It is difficult to control case temps with lacing software and this just made my day. Literally busy installing new non-rgb fans into my new case. Thanks dude.

Thank you for the rundown. This has been a big help for my case fans. I couldn't find my CPU fan control but I've set a few curves and managed to make them all quieter. Great tutorial and a great piece of software.

I'm new to understanding how to control my fans and this software just made it so easy. My temps were all over the place and now everything is icey and cool with this software so thanks to the developer and Jay for making the video.

Thanks, Jay! I came back to this a year later to check out the software. It is really great. Highly recommended.

I made a custom shroud with two 120mm fans for my GPU and I have been using this software to control the fan curves using a motherboard fan header. The dev has been keeping things updated, which has been great to see.

Thank you for highlighting an individual developer's software. This is awesome, and I am excited to know it exists. I will definitely need to use it when I perform maintenance on the small form factor I gave my friend.

Secondly, I noticed in the changelog that Rem0o has already updated the software to address every issue you mentioned in your video! I will be donating as well, and I hope he makes a ton of money. I would also love to see him get going on some universal RGB control software next!

it was one of the first pieces of software I have installed on my PC as I have finished building it last August. It's really amazing. Over time my fan curves and sensor combinations grew more complex and the system got cooler without fans freaking out at every load spike. EDIT: I wanted to mention one more way of dealing with the after-blow without too long response times. Add a custom sensor for 300 sec average temp and a sensor for 5 sec average. Add a custom sensor with max function of the both 300 and 5 sec average. This max is now the temperature source for your component (CPU for example). So it will ramp up quickly enough and bring down the 5 minute average after that. In my case it's a 420mm AIO that's going to get thermal soaked. You can use the 5 minute average for mixing like Jay did for the CPU/GPU max and set the exhaust fan for the same purpose of cooling down the hotbox after sustained load. The opportunities are endless!

THANK YOU my pc fans were super loud from the time I built it a couple years ago & I couldn't figure out why. I don't like messing around in BIOS too much this finally got my fans to a good volume level

You're explanation of setting the pump at a static speed is great, in cars they restrict the flow rate of the coolant because if it flows at full speed it doesn't have time to extract the heat from the engine. A lower flow rate is best, as long as it is still able to keep the temps cool

Does leaving the pump speed to 100% realy reduce life duration of the pump ? Cause almost everywhere , manufacturers , official computer shops , and comments say that the pump speed must be used at 100%

​@@shirakolee Best bet is to lower the speed and get more efficient fans.

This is an absolutely beautiful piece of software, just what I was looking for. It allows your setup to be as simple or complex as you want. Thanks to Jayz for the recommendation and to Remi for putting it together. Donation done!

Finally got around to sitting down and using this. The way you (Jay) set it up in the video actually doesn't seem to go off the highest temperature, but rather the highest fan curve. I played around a bit and what you actually want to do is make a Mix Sensor. Add your CPU and GPU temp sensors to that and change it to Max, THEN make a Fan Curve based on that Mix Sensor. I prefer my GPU to be 0 RPM below 40C, so this is how I discovered the issue with just making a Mixed Curve. I have a GPU curve set to the GPU fans and then the Mix Sensor Curve set to the chassis/rad fans. Hope that helps every one!

I think max PWM signal from individual fan curves is the more sensible approach because raw temperatures aren't that interesting, you could have two components that have vastly different preferred temperatures, like you may either want to have more overclocking room on your CPU and keep its maximum temperature lower, or on the other hand you might not care about the CPU that much and you're fine with it being anywhere just short of throttle limit, you just want your GPU to have fresh happy air when it needs it. So even if he hasn't worded it that way it may have been quite exactly what he wanted.

ive just installed this program and yeah, it realyy is something else ! thats also JaysTwoCents for the instructions and also for the motivation to donate , i also donated . keep up the good job bro

I'm beyond happy to have this software. Thank you Jay!! With this software, my system indeed runs like a finely tuned engine! Donating on payday.

I found this same utility a few months ago when looking for similar control of fan speeds without all of the Asus bloatware. It’s powerful and flexible yet light on resources. Impressive stuff and definitely need to support the developer.

I have found that fan controlling software has always lacked, and it got so bad at one point to be unusable, so I bought a Thermaltake Commander F6. Now I have complete control manually by spinning a knob. I wish this software would have been available during that time. So my next question is, If a single person can develop something this good, why is this lost on the big software and hardware devs? Function over Aesthetics!

Boy I can't agree more. I remember once at a local computer store years ago, my sister and I were going over the wall of fans, comparing CFMs, static pressure (if listed) and DBs, looking to get the most of first two, and the least of third, while wishing for dual ball bearings instead of a glob of grease between two plastic sleeves... some kid came up to us after hearing us talk (argue?) and asked if we could answer a question as he was looking for the coolest looking fan. So my sister said 'fans are for FFFFF' (she blew) and lights are for looks. Then we explained what we were looking for. So I then said, 'so what you get depends on the purpose, if one with lights has the features that work well _AS A FAN_ then go for it. But remember it is a fan first...

Amazing video!!! Thank you Jay, this is my first PC build and i had no idea how or what to set them at.

Thanks for the sharing this info as just finished a build in the last week and was first build I'd done for a good few years and was surprised at how much of a struggle it was to get all my fan's all working how I needed them too well worth a donation to the dev ✌️

Not able to give a lot but was able to donate to this AMAZING software. Thank you Remi you are a King for this level of control. Enthusiasts UNITE!

the second i hit download Jay said thousands of you are hitting download now, 100% true, this software is amazing, THANK YOU JAY

Dude! I've been waiting for something like this. THANK YOU! Donation done!

Love the way you don't just highlight the helpful software Jay, but take the time to make sure everyone understands the importance of supporting the person's hard work. Keep it up mate!

looks awesome and especially "simple" without any over the top UI that looks like a flashgames website from the early 2000s. Would be nice if you could maybe do some sort of overview for programms like these every quarter or so.

Thanks for this video, I was just looking at my motherboard software the other day and thought "why does this not have the GPU temp as a sensor for the fans". Now this is so much better, simpler, lighter in every way, thanks for giving us a how-to!

Wow. This video made such a MASSIVE difference in my noise v thermals ratio! Its so much more quiet and controlled now!

Great vid! Exactly the type of content for after completing a build. Recommendations for software I think should be more talked about with in the community. 🤘

This is awesome, so glad you made this video. This app is exactly what I've been wishing for. I have a pretty standard build, but I want to keep it as quiet as possible until actual performance demands dictate more airflow.

Been using Argus Monitor for a few years now. Has similair features but a less modern GUI. It is pay for, but has profiles and lots of monitoring features. Worth a look. May look at Fan Control in the future

I finally got around to messing with this and it is absolutely brilliant! The mixed curves, hysteresis/response time, and the step up/step down configurations are all so good! My only issue is that it won't let me control my GPU fans. Not a big deal but I would've loved to have my GPU fans utilize the % step down and hysteresis configurations.

Bit late, but you can set start% and stop% for the GPU fans to start and stop spinning. Just like MSI Afterburner I have set it at 30% for both, it will spin up at 30% and stop at 30%. Make sure to have Nvidia hardware curve overide enabled in the Sensor settings. Make sure to only do this if your GPU by default have the function to stop spinning the fans.

quality. I've wanted something like this but never wanted to get additional gear or some overcomplicated motherboard

This is absolutely what I am looking for! Going to download it and donate to thank Remi. Awesome piece of software. And if he adds RGB in the future I'll donate again. Mr. Mercier, thx a lot for a brilliant piece of software which shows what major companies should have made ages ago and like Jay said, we want you to keep ahead of them so i hope donations will be flowing in like nuts.

Can't wait to try this out when I build my new system later this week. I bought the Fractal Torrent so I'm going to forego their fan hub and run separate splitters for the front and bottom fans and tie them to the CPU and GPU respectively. This system is gonna run so much cooler and quieter than my old H7000.
