Software to set fan speeds (preferably not the graph type)

Hi forum

Anyone know of fan controlling software?

I could manually do it from my bios but i don't like the way it's set up i.e. those graph looking types where you click and drag on a small dot by looking at speed and temp and set it manually.

Example: http://www.kitguru.net/wp-content/up...-monitor-2.jpg


Im looking for a type where it's simpler and might say low, medium or high fan settings. Optional and you just select whichever and it sets the fan speed up for you.... this way i find it way better.

I could do the above with my last motherboards software, it gave the simple fan speed options and i could set it to whichever whenever. But now you have to set the speeds by looking at the graphs and im just not a fan of this.


Another thing i am unsure of is the case fans speeds. I know my corsair h60 rear fan and the fan that sits on the cpu are way faster then my case fans. Could the case fans be controlled and be as fast as the h60 corsair fans? This probably depends on how the fans are connected to the motherboard i assume .



Any ideas, thanks.

Thanks for reply.

Never thought of that but i was rather looking for a free software apart from the graph type ones.

Hi,
Yep most if not all will require a custom fan profile which is a pain to deal with
Auto via bios should suffice

But if the room is available the controller is the next best thing since sliced bread :)
That one has alarms if heating goes up too much :)

ok m8 thanks

No problem mate sometimes a device is more straight forward than software :)

Some times a device or 2 is the only way to go as in this case that I added 2 pci-e slot controlers for intake and exhaust fans :)
But still do leave the cpu and assist fans plugged to the mother board

I have one of these, too. Great piece of machinery.

Hi,
