In this tutorial, I'm showing the basic steps to setup Fan Control. We will create fan curves for my computer case fans, using both GPU and CPU temperature as sources.
Make sure to checkout my latest videos for updates on FanControl. New features were added since the release of this video!
May u plz help me with my other comment
I wanted just to control my cpu fan to make it a bit more fast but the program itself cant show any GUI related to what you are using in the video, it doesnt show me anything but it starts in the background as a labeled started .exe, no GUI or anything... so sad.
So is your software able to control fans connected to Silverstone fan controller? Example, is that fans that are connected to Silverstone controller can be controlled separately or all at once?
can you make a video about fancontrol not detecting fans on pc? thank you.
@@randomguyodst46 Yes please. Same boat here.
This looks to be just what I was looking for since going to a new MSI board. It's clean, easy to use, low profile and from what I'm seeing from just starting it up and having a play, does the job. No more need to spin up Dragon Centre to set the fans!
Thank you for your time putting this together, awesome work! 🙏👍
Absolutely sweet implementation! Replaced speedfan in a heartbeat! :)
Glad you like it.
As a watercooling addict on my machine for over 15 years, I just want to say thank you! Amazing work.
I've sent a few beers :)
Should fill my fridge with some fresh IPAs :)
Man this is so neat. I finally got my case fans to rev up in a sensible manner.
And you managed to write functional software, while the stuff that comes with Gigabyte and ASRock mobos is buggy and broken.
AND you made such a calm and clear tutorial. Really doing God's work.
Built my first PC last year and I was using BIOS for my CPU and case fans plus Afterburner for my GPU fans. I don't overclock at the moment so I didn't really need Afterburner and I got tired of restarting the PC just to change my other fans so this helps out a ton. Everywhere I looked was singing the praises of Speedfan but the only things it picked up in my system were my two M.2 drives...
Got this downloaded and set up in minutes and now my PC is quieter than it's ever been while still maintaining my temps and I can change things in a moment. Picks up my CPU fan header, pump header, all 6 case fan headers, and my GPU's 2 fan controls. Nice to know I'll have control if I ever add PWM exhaust fans or decide to not daisy chain my intakes. Thanks!
You got it right. Enjoy!
Works well with DC fans. I like the mixed-source function; whenever either GPU or CPU gets hotter, the case fans will speed up, rather than having to set each fan for one or the other.
This stuff is absolutely amazing. Thanks for your efforts!
Hi, I just want to tell you that you're a godsend for creating this software. It works PERFECTLY. You do not understand how grateful I am, I was about to shell out $100 for the Corsair Commander Pro. You just saved me $100.
Maybe I should start asking 50$ for it ;)
Amazing Software, better then i have expected ANY Software could be to control fan speeds. The mixed Control is something i wanted for years but never dreamt of it could be possible in this perfection. I have configured all case fans with CPU and GPU Mixed Sensors and it is just awesome. Of course i honored your work with a donation you absolutely deserve :-)
Dude, THANK YOU for creating this! Been using it for a week or so and its been great, I needed to control my exhaust fans based on gpu temp for my current setup and this does it flawlessly.
Dude you are freaking amazing. I just got my pc and happened to find this and you made it all so nice and easy. So professional. Great work, and already saving my gpu. Thank you so much
Glad you like it!
Any reason why only my gpu fan shows up though. Honestly don’t know a ton about what’s inside. lol, need to watch a video on how to open my pc😂
I cant say for how many years I have been looking for such a software. Its so easy and just works sooo well. Thank you so much dude
Thank you so much! My new PC fans speed kept spiking up and down, it was driving me insane. Now I have them set at a low profile and I'm at peace again. :)
just came here to thank you! your software is AWESOME!
Excellent bit of SW, TY so much for your time and knowledge in developing this FREE for everyone. This vid will help me on using it as my fans are a mess atm lol.
you are a legend, this was the only software that worked with my obscure prebuild Asus motherboard. Thank you so much!
Bro I wanna hug you now. My GPU fans died a few weeks ago and I glued 2 case fans to it until the replacements arrive in like 3 months, and had to manually change their speeds all the time through the MSI dragon centre every time I'm doing something or idling. This is the only thing I've found so far that's capable of controlling them by monitoring the GPU temps which sounds simple but your program is the only one I've found doing it. Cheers!
This is incredibly good software! It's simple and intuitive (which you can't say for a lot of fan software), it gives control over all your fans, and works flawlessly!
Thank you so much not only for the helpful video, but also for your work on the software itself. It feels amazing to know my components will remain cool!
Thank you for making this software, makes fan control a breeze. I installed it less than a week ago, but I’m not seeing myself use anything else for this purpose for a while now so I have donated a cup of coffee for you. Keep up the good work!
Dear Remi, thank you very much for your software and helping thousands of people! I finally tossed the garbage that is Asus AI Suite aside and found your wonderful program!
I cant believe that so simple and easy to work with software exist.
I figured out everything by myself for a couple of minutes.
Unfortunately i cant donate right now, when i can i will do it.
Thank you very much dude.
this software saved me i bought these noctua fans that were set to max 2000 rpms and it sounded like a wind tunnel
Just got around to using this awesome software. Got rid of the bloated Armoury crate. Keep up the good work mate!
thank god this software exists. I was sick and tied of my mobo reading the wrong temp for setting the fan speeds but now they will stay nice and quiet
Found this yesterday. Excellent fan control software ... Best that I have ever used.
You have done a superb job with this! I've been able to manage my temps better now because I was able to stay in work mode with my processor going full steam making my art while I adjusted fans.
I hope you make a million dollars off this! What you've done could benefit millions of people! Thanks!
Just spent some time today setting this up. Ur tutorial made it easy. Love how you can set a source temp for the minimized tray icon and start the program with windows already minimized. Good interface and now finally I have good fan curves setup for my system and it runs like a beast now. So much better than speedfan. Amazing
You are an absolute legend. Incredible software.
Thank you so much creating this. I've been using for 5 months now. I've never donated for free software before but I just sent you a donation. Cheers mate. 😀
3 years later and I am here saying thank you!
You're welcome. :)
Beautiful work... I can't believe nobody set that up before...
Just what I was lookling for...! Simple, but all the options you need, brilliant! Thank you very much for that!
Great piece of software, well done. I have been using it for several months nd find it very usefull. I hope you keep developing it as it is heads and shoulders ahead of other fancontrol software.
great software, very advanced. contains all the settings I've been looking for in a host of other products. super detection of third parties. THANKS. I'm happy to donate to help a true professional.
I've ditched NZXT CAM for this. Fan and Pump control with a great UI. Thanks dude!
Man i will direct donate, amazing job, i delete Ai suite 3 directly when i found about this software! Proud of you man!
Great stuff! Works great. It's the only fan changer that works for me. Only thing i wish was implemented was a customizable curve, so you can change speeds depending on multiple different temps.
Have you seen the mixed curve usage in this video? It allows to use 2 different temps in a single curve!
Ah, i see. Thanks! I'll be using that instead.
@@rmsoftware3759 I've used the mixed curve to ramp up my water pump, in case the gpu OR the cpu needs it sooner, whatever reaches 50°C first with the "Max" function.
Awesome stuff man.
Wish we had more simple and useful software like this.
Just donated 10USD as a small thanks.
Thank you for building and maintaining this excellent tool. Well done!
Is there a way to control my corsair AIO fans with this? they don´t seem to be showing up in the software
i used to use speed fan till yesterday, good thing i found this software, its easier for me. i dont really control my fans wia software, cause i got 8 channel fan controller that i do prefer, however my three pumps need to be PWM controlled, so i have to have some kind of software for them. I wish there was possibility to add more temperature sensors to temperature source when we are making a trigger curve, since i have two gpu's in the system.
Edit: while i like this software, there are still things the speed fan does better, multiple triggers, it can read vrm temps of a gpu/cpu and act upon it if set up so.
Thank you soooooooo much. I really apriciate the software and I really really love it. I searched for so long and finally found the best software ever
Good lesson. Thank you three years ago version of Sir.
This is a fantastic bit of software! Easy to use and fully functional. Much better than the ASUS AI Suite garbage that kept causing boot issues. Happily donated to the author.
How about laptop. Can you make a toturial to use it in laptop?
it cant detect my fans only my gpu
Damn I can finally get rid of that awful Asus Bloatware, glad I found this, thank you!
Nice tool! Finally found the time to test it. :) I love the interface and the already integrated options while keeping a clean and simple UI. What I really would like to have is a possibility to just control the fans manually without having to set up a fan curve. The option could disappear once you activate the "fan curve" option.
//edit: oh, seems like it's not able to control all of my fans on the X570 Aorus Ultra. There are two different fan control chips on the board, so it seems like the second one is not supported. It's the IT8795E. I'd really like to do a video about your tool in the near future - but I can't because of missing support for my board. But really good work so far! Hope you incorporate more supported boards in the future.
I seem to have the same problem and I have a B550 Aorus Pro AC, I guess we just have to wait for Fan Control to support the different chips? Also, where did you find the info for your fan control chips, and does Fan Control have a list of supported chips?
Hello, when I opened Fan Control, I saw nothing. How do I add my fans?
you are the best, the best fan software i have ever used
I tried the flat curve on all my different fans but none of them stopped or changed their speed. Can anybody help?
Edit: well for my GPU it works but the CPU coller and the case fans still don't react
wish i had something as sophisticated like this for linux
WOW man, what you have done is fantastic
FINALLY. A decent fan control software i've been searching for one for a few days.
This is really good :)
Although i do have one issue : 3 fan controls do not match with the fans in the speed section (including 1 that doesn't show up).
Even when trying the flat curve at 0% and watching my case.
Are all your fan headers used?
@@rmsoftware3759 yes !
but i am using a fan hub with 4 headers for 1. and 2 other headers on the motherboard have a Y cable for 2 extra headers.
Maybe that's the cause ?
@ You got it.
@@rmsoftware3759 interesting, the headers which have the Y cable for 2 fans are paired (in my case, 2 top fans and 2 at the bottom).
So each fan control acts upon each pair, which is perfect for me !
The one with the hub though is weird. The software detects them, i can see their speed, but can't control them.
Wow! This is the best fan controller for me!
The UI are simple but works really great!
It’s better than Gigabyte’s SIV that I use for a while, that software don’t react to die temperature.
Hello, I downloaded the software and on initial launch only the fan detection poped up. After that the fan controll logo was in my taskbar but nothing launched. I mean that nothing was displayed.
I had high hopes for this, but hasn't worked so far. First, it only detects the sensors of only three of my four exhaust fans, although all four are on mobo headers, and only two of my GPU fan sensors. Second, the .exe file ran once or twice and no longer does. Likely being blocked by my OS, so I'll have to figure out how to unblock. If anyone reading this knows how to fix please advise, thanks.
This is a great product! Highly recommended
a bit late but thanks for teaching me how to use the software,thank you for ur,time thanks for everything
MSI x570 software wont even reinstall without tons of steps or a wipe and the fix is to use bios or paid s/w. Plus this is simple and effective. Thank you.
Thank you! So easy to use, could not ask for more. Just got my new Lian Li o11 mini and several new fans to config :p
It's a simple and practical little app. Sent you a little something, you're awesome!
This is exactly what I needed. Thank you for making this. :)
Thank you for this video. Very informative and this software is awesome. I never liked the ASUS BIOS software because I run a custom loop with 4 radiators and 2 cooling zones. Works like a charm.
AWESOOOOOOME !!! And very simple and pretty too!! Well done!
This app is GLORIOUS! Bye bye SpeedFan. Thank you sir!
Thanks! As you probably saw, the software changed quite a bit since this video, but everyone seems to watch this one video.
Älskar mjukvaran. Du får definitivt en donation.
pretty straight forward love it mate.
dude ur a legend for making this holy f
I'm a PC gamer, but I'm not super tech savvy & I found this program to not be user friendly at all. Why do I have to setup a Curve? Why cant I just adjust the fan speed% & save profiles like that? Uninstalled after 5 mins. Idk why it needs to be this complicated. Should be easy to use for people of all skill levels, looks like it's just for professionals.
You can set it however u want. Theres an option to set speeds manually
Help me please. How to properly remove this program? What if I want it to stop affecting the operation of the system?
@@stefan_esIf you haven't figured it out yet or for the next person. On fan 1,2,3,4 theres a switch below the name, when its off the program no longer has control. If the fan has no switch you can toggle and running 100% then its a 3pin fan that the motherboard powers but has no control over.
I have donate you the same amounth that I was giving to Argus Monitor. This software is great, you should sponsorize it more!
Thank you!
Thank you for sharing this tutorial
Great software I love to use. I think it might be interesting for you to update your videos tutorials . Actually, there are many news option in your the software. Anyway, many thanks from a french fan 😀😀👍👍👍
Holy crap I just discovered this! Nice stuff.. I'll have a play and then donate!
Wow this is awesome! I was looking for a modern alternative for Windows 95 Speedfan for yeeears! :D Thank you!!
My fans are not physically stopping when activating the flat curve. Am I doing something wrong?
How do I use this on a laptop? I gotta say, it's not very intuitive. The only thing that shows up when I first open this is a card that says "Flat curve example". What am I supposed to do with that? None of the fan speed controls that you already seemed to have are there.
When I open fan controll it's empty. I don't know how get those entries. Please help. I'm just looking for a Software where I can check if all my fans are running correctly (laptop). Is this the right one?
i'm trying to control my case fan and my cpu fan but it doesn't appear in the program, how can i fix it?
I thought I was stuck with the crappy Gigabyte software.
Thank you for making this!
Excellent software, than you Sr.

I tried this software and it doesn't even detect my 2 fans on my asus laptop, any other alternatives?
Noticed that these videos are from a older version of the program so some new features aren't mentioned in any of the 4 parts.
I thought it was odd that all my fans would stay at 1000rpm at all times after basic setup. Went up to 1500rpm idle after setting CPU fan. I hadn't seen anything about the mixed curve for case Function (which was set MAX as basis) that isn't shown in any of the videos. Changed the MAX value to Average and front fans went to 0rpm just like in the video so I guess check that if you have similar problem.
I don't get why some of my fans ( bottom intake, plugged into 1 to 2 splitter) won't show rpm, at initial setup it was saying "A paired rpm sensor is required". What does that even mean? There are two fans plugged into one header for cpu as well and it just works. I need two bottom intakes to be dependant on gpu temps to feed gpu some air but I don't see the way to get it done.
very good software thank you so much for creating it!!!!
Hello, thanks for a great program. Thanks for theses guides :)
what can you do when all your fans are connected to a fan hub
Not much. This program needs individual headers on your motherboard.
much better than speedfan! thank you so much
Is there anything we can do when the software doesnt recognize CPU cooler?
i dont know if u well see this since it has been 2 years but the software cant detect my cpu fan can case fans
What an amazing work. Thank you very much for this. Only one question, will the software identify 2 fans if one exhaust fan and one front fan are connected to the same fan header in the motherboard?
Best Control-Software ever
thank you very much. very helpful!
as a novice to this software using a laptop, nothing matches what I see when I open it. Everyone starts with a screen already labeled but what are they doing to find it? I have only 2 fans in my laptop but what do I choose? Not easy to follow :(
Sadly, laptops are not supported by FanControl.
Good application, works great. Thanks!
This might be an issue for my system in general, but I cant seem to control 2 of my case fans. Reason I say this is because software like HWMonitor give the same RPM reading as Fan Control. Anyways, I made sure to plug each fan into the SYS_FAN headers on my Aorus B550 Pro AC mobo, set each of these headers to PWM fan control in BIOS, and I still don't have any control over these 2 fans, except in BIOS. They don't respond to any manual changes or fan curves that I've set in Fan Control. These fans are plugged into SYS_FAN4 and SYS_FAN1.
Also, I have an AIO and the rad fan plugs into a header that connects to the pump through a splitter, which then plugs into the CPU_FAN header in my mobo. In Fan Control and even my BIOS, the RPM reported for my CPU fan is 4500. So it seems the pump speed and fan speed are just being added together? Idk, but Corsair iCue correctly reports the fan and pump speeds separately. I guess I could just plug them into separate headers and see if there's a difference but this was the way the instruction manual recommended I install the AIO.
Either way, the potential of this software is huge and I would like to take full advantage! Please let me know if you have any suggestions and thank you for this amazing software.
Try DC on these headers.
Dear Sir
I want to thank U for writing this very useful program. I would like to make a suggestion: is there anyway for U to elaborate on how to open this and close that etc etc? there R lots of older folks(like yours truly) that R not as computer savvy as the younger generation. I was hoping for step by step instructions (I understand that it could B tedious for people who don't need step by step). Plz don't get me wrong, what U have done is quality work, all I am asking is to keep the weakest link in mind. Thanks
David Shahin
PS: FYI, I got stuck @ creating flat fan curve.
If I turn of the fan that means that its controled by windows ?
