Maybe I phrased my sentence just wrong. I did want to exclude SpeedFan from the list, since it actually is a useful application. However, what I meant was that controlling fan speeds without the intent of building a SpeedFan-like application is definitely a NO. Anyway, you guys do know how much effort and time was put to SpeedFan to make it the SpeedFan we know and love*? Still, SpeedFan does not support everything and it'll continue to be like that till the bitter end.maw wrote:talisman wrote:Leave fan speeds as is.

What? Application control is the best way to handle fan speed! Like Speedfan for example: http://www.almico.com/speedfan.php , so that depending on the load and temperature of the cpu/gpu/hdd an so on you can set the fans to different speeds.
That's what already happens automatically. If it doesn't happen with your fans it probably means that your computer is full of dust or that the fan doesn't support multiple speeds.maw wrote:talisman wrote:Leave fan speeds as is.

Quite right. And yes, I do know how much time and effort Alfredo has put into Speedfan, been using it since the very first beta! I fear the day he will get bored with it...While the built in fan regulation that most motherboards have these days is better than none, it doesn't even come close to Speedfan. I have my fans running at around 400rpm, just above the speed where they will start at all, and I can't hear whether my computer is on or not. And it's still really cool. Only when I'm gaming does Speedfan speed up the fans, and then very seldom above 1000rpm even though I'm running a quadcore.Trond wrote:That's what already happens automatically.
