Automatic Temperature Detection and Fan Control Needed

Hey guys,

 

I'm using the Cooler Master Storm Trooper case with a fan control panel on the front that requires a manual increase or decrease of fan levels. The problem is, sometimes I'll forget to change the fans as my stress load changes. Is there a program that will automatically and accurately detect temperatures and control the fans for me?

 

I have the ASRock Z97 Extreme6 mobo.

Hello and welcome to the Forum,

 

There are several programs that could do that for you. A good a simple one would be SpeedFan. Although you would have to connect the fans to your motherboard and not to your fan controller.

 

But: Do you really need to crank up the speed of your case fans? I have mine regulated by the motherboard and they run at the lowest speed even when the system is under full load for a long time. In most cases the regulation of fan speeds if just usefull to shut them down completely while the system is idling. I would recommend to check your temperatures under load and under idle with fans on the lowest setting beforehand.

 

Regard and good luck,

Hi, I believe your motherboard already have the feature, FAN-Tastic Tuning, I read from here. But if I'm not mistaken a software like that will cancel the function of fan controller it self.
