FanControl, my take on a SpeedFan replacement

[Bitter]

Would there be a way to have CPU load or GPU load control fan speed, maybe with a heavier dose of hysteresis? That might be beneficial for someone with a water cooling loop who wants to get a jump on temperature rise during a CPU heavy work load to keep the loop temps down rather than chasing the temp rise with their fan speed.

That would add a level of indirection to the whole process, which in a feedback command loop like here, is bad. Even though load and temperature are closely related, ultimately, you're trying to control temperatures, not load. Furthermore, since load % can be erratic, you would have to add a ridiculous amount of smoothing to make it somewhat tolerable, which would defeat the original purpose to get a jump on the temperature change.

It doesn't work with ASUS B350-F unfortunately

Makes sense.

New feature: Fan curve offset

 

Pretty self explanatory, useful when one of your fans have different max RPMs.

 

Also unplugged the UI when the window is closed, should result in lower CPU usage.

Bugfix

 

Fixed annoying bug where at startup the fans would "sweep" from 0% or 100% to the target level.

So if I'm seeing a blank fan list, it's actually bad sign right? AsRock x570 ITX\TB3
Runs as administraor btw

Yes, but look in your DMs, might have a fix.

Fixed a bug where some AMD GPU temperature shouldn't show up

Ooh, actually pretty excited about this. I will try it out on my computer when I get home!

For the less technically inclined of us, what's the short of this?

Lots of refactor and support for new SuperIO chips, like IT8655 which I think is used on some B350 boards I've come accross.

Awesome! Might work with my x470!

Thanks for coming up with an alternative for us with terrible motherboard software! Unfortunately it appears it doesn't work on my gigabyte x570 aorus master

It's showing the fan speeds, but the only thing under "fan controls" is my 2080ti GPU, which ironically doesn't have a fan speed shown. When I go to create a curve, all the temperature sensors appear at least. Just need help figuring out the control portion. Sad that it seems like no motherboard manufacturer thinks anyone would want to control fans by GPU temp

Hi, I just registered here to thank you for your work on this nice software. It is a superb alternative to speedfan which gets blocked nowadays by many anticheat software. Please keep up your work and if you not already made this opensource please do it.

 

Im using it on an asus maximus ranger VIII and it works like a charm.

[puuuup]

it`s awesome!!! BUT i can`t boot at startup.AND i cann`t open it after i exit once or reboot the system, i have to delete the user config then it can open,but my settings are gone , what should i do?thank you

The app doesn't even appear in the bottom right tray? If so:
1) Open the app 

2) Three dot menu => save config

3) Send me the userConfig.json in dm

 

There has to be something weird in the serialization process 

[puuuup]

该应用程序甚至都没有出现在右下角的托盘中？如果是这样：
1）打开应用 

2）三点菜单=>保存配置

3）将dm中的userConfig.json发送给我

 

序列化过程中一定有些奇怪 

i download the old version, it can open again,but still can`t boot at startup and i already add it to the startup folder

userConfig.json

Hi @Rem0o - In the spirit of using FOSS, will you provide your source code for this project?  This would be a great feature to merge into LibreHardwareMonitor.

Look into your DMs.

More motherboard sensor values read correctly which is an improvement for my Asus X470, but I still have no board fan controls. Getting closer though, one of these days it'll work!

[Lupo]

It's been working great for me, aside losing the settings a couple times after rebooting, which I wasn't able to reproduce.

 

I'm still trying to figure out if there's a way for me to have the VRM temperature recognized in LibreHardwareMonitor..

HWiNFO, HWMonitor and SpeedFan can read it correctly, but it seems that both LHM and OHM skip that specific reading.

It reads everything else but the #4 temperature, which is my VRM.

 

My motherboard is an ASUS Z97-PRO GAMER (Nuvoton NCT6791D), if that helps..

Same skipped reading with my Asus Z87 ITX board as well which was a bummer because I have a fan just for the VRM riser that I wanted keyed to temp, not a big deal tho.
