FanCtrl is a Windows desktop utility focused on automatically controlling PC fan speeds using temperature sensors and customizable fan curves, so your cooling behavior matches how you actually use your system. It combines monitoring and control in one place, letting you view temperatures, fan RPM, and control percentages while you tune how aggressively each fan responds. The project supports a range of control backends and integrations, including motherboard fan headers and several popular cooling ecosystems, and it can also pull sensor data from common monitoring tools so your fan logic can react to the readings you trust. A core concept is “auto fan control” profiles where you pick a target temperature sensor, select which fans should follow it, and then shape the curve via a graph-like interface. It also includes quality-of-life options like renaming items, choosing units (including Fahrenheit), and starting minimized for a set-it-and-forget-it setup.
