I'm basically looking for software that can change my fan speeds depending on what time of day it is, I've had a look around Google and haven't been able to find anything of use. My PC is on 24/7 so I'd like to have the fans run slower after 12PM and speed up again around 8AM.

 

Is this at all possible?

why would you want the fans spinning on other speeds depending on the daytime?

i'd set fancurves depending on the temperatures ;) plug the fans on your motherboard and set it up in your BIOS

your rig wont run that hot at night and the fans run lower as you want it

Pretty sure speedfan can do something like that

Thank you, I'll take a look at it.

It's not depending on the daytime, It's depending on the nighttime. I know my idle temps therefore I can set the fan speeds to run slower & quieter whilst I sleep and allow them to speed up if for any reason the temperature does go up.

Well thats not making any sense. Now you are saying you don't want them to change depending on time but depending on temp. All control software can do curves based on temp. I don't think even Speedfan can do control according to set times. Ofc you can do bit mix up. Like set lower temp settings with Speedfan as constant values (or using some other software) and then create scheduled task which opens Speedfan for certain time and another task to close it and allow fans to speed up.
