...Rather than relying solely on BIOS fan curves, it allows dynamic adjustment of fan behaviour at the operating-system level — letting you react to real-time load, mix multiple sensors (CPU, GPU, motherboard, drives, etc.), and define custom fan-speed curves for different situations. The tool supports both manual mode (user directly sets fan speeds) and automated mode (fans follow sensor-driven graphs), enabling flexible tradeoffs between noise, cooling, and performance. Users can create and save different “profiles” (e.g. silent mode, high-performance mode, custom GPU-heavy workloads), then load them as needed. Recent versions switched their driver backend (migrating from WinRing0 to a PawnIO-based driver) to improve compatibility and avoid security/AV-flagging issues.

...It supports a wide range of Macs, including recent Apple Silicon models with M3/M4 chips, and can adjust fans to respond to specific temperature sources, not just default system profiles. Users commonly employ this tool to keep systems cooler under heavy workloads or to reduce fan noise in quiet environments. Macs Fan Control bridges gaps left by the default macOS thermal management, especially for users running demanding software or older machines with less efficient heat dissipation.

...Furthermore, MSI Afterburner supports video recording, enabling users to capture their gameplay or overclocking sessions with ease. Its compatibility with all major graphics card brands makes it an indispensable tool for anyone looking to push their hardware to the limit.

SpeedFan lets you take a deeper view at the status of your computer. Almost every computer includes support for hardware monitoring. Accessing digital temperature sensors is really useful. If you are trying to figure out why your PC hangs when under heavy load or after some hours of usage, SpeedFan might help you find the real cause. Very often it is a poor power supply, or an improperly installed heatsink that lead to behaviours that we tend to associate (incorrectly) with errors from the...

Argus Monitor is a powerful fan-control and system-monitoring tool that gives you complete control over cooling behavior across your entire PC. It allows you to manage CPU, GPU, motherboard, and AIO fans using fixed values or advanced temperature-based control curves sourced from any sensor in your system. With multi-controller support, fan profiles, hysteresis, and temperature averaging, Argus Monitor offers smooth, precise fan adjustments with minimal noise fluctuation.

TuxClocker is an open-source Qt-based overclocking and hardware monitoring utility tailored for GNU/Linux systems. The project combines a DBus daemon with a Qt graphical user interface, allowing users to inspect and adjust performance characteristics of their hardware—particularly GPUs—under Linux. TuxClocker provides a user-friendly GUI atop lower-level interfaces, making it easier to control clock speeds, fan behavior, and other tuning parameters without resorting exclusively to...

lm-sensors is the canonical Linux project for reading motherboard and peripheral hardware sensors—temperatures, fan speeds, voltages—and exposing them to userspace. It ships a probing utility (sensors-detect) that identifies I²C/SMBus chips and kernel drivers, then a runtime tool (sensors) that prints human-readable readings for quick diagnostics. The companion library, libsensors, gives applications a stable API to query sensor values, enabling desktop applets, monitoring daemons, and alerting systems to build on a common foundation. Configuration files map raw chip registers to friendly labels and scaling factors, so outputs reflect real hardware characteristics across many vendors. ...

This tool let's you control the frequency and fan settings of your AMD/ATI video card. It depends on the proprietary AMD/ATI Catalyst display driver and makes use of the AMD Display Library (ADL).

Command line tool that uses AMD ADL OverDrive5 interface to control power and fan speed of their GPU boards. Look at the Wiki page about usage. Works on Windows and Linux (if video driver is loaded).
