Control the fans on the CPU processor, the GPU or the computer case

Fan Control is a focused and highly customizable fan controlling software for Windows.

Fan Control: Control CPU, GPU and case fans

The various controllers can be selected using the symbol in the lower right corner. These allow a more precise setting of the fan control with steps, response time and hysteresis. Different curves and sensors can be mixed with each other.

In addition, Fan Control offers the possibility to display several temperature sources (CPU, GPU, motherboard, hard drives, .sensor file) at the same time. According to the manufacturer, the user should be able to create custom external temperature sensors with sensor files for further customization. In addition, multiple profiles can be created, saved and loaded.

However, the software is not particularly beginner-friendly - if you are experimenting with the fan settings for the first time, you have to tweak the settings yourself, there is no explanation for the individual components.
