r/FanControl on Reddit: Plugin to change fan speed on game or specific application launch
February 26, 2025 -

In the perfect world I would love to have a plugin that actives specific curves or even change configurations when games/processes launch and then uses a totally different profile when not gaming. Is anyone aware of anything like this?

Another great option would be for the curve to have one of the options to be on game launch for certain fans. For instance you can choose which sensor to use for your curve, but I would love to have sensor source be game launches. For some fans I would just leave normal fan curves that follow cpu or other sensors, and then some fans that look for game or application launches.

If you know if other plugins that might be interesting please link me.

Thanks!

May 18, 2023 - How do i add it to Fancontrol, so i can control it this way instead of the temperatures. As it is now i only have possibility to control from temperatures in the program. EDIT, i got HWINFO to work with Fancontrol, but it will only accept temperatures and not usage %. Is there a plugin to add % and not only temperatures?

Own an Asus Tuf 4070 Ti and want to setup a fan curve profile. I have always used MSI afterburner but now that there are rumors is not going to be supported I was wondering what are you guys using? Unsure how good Asus GPU TWEAK software is

r/FanControl on Reddit: Looking for a FanControl Guru to HELP!!!!
December 20, 2025 -

Hello,

I built my PC back in July. FanControl worked well on my previous build, so I used it again on this new PC (MSI Vanguard 5090, 9950X3D, 1500W PSU, 64GB G.Skill RAM, ASRock Taichi X870E, cooled with an Arctic Liquid Freezer III Pro AIO).

Everything was working well initially. I don’t have the exact timeline in front of me, but at some point after an update, everything broke. I believe it may have been version 241 (or possibly 244), but either way, that’s when the issues started.

I spent most of October trying to troubleshoot and fix the problem. I used both Grok and OpenAI to run through tests, deleting everything and starting over from scratch on several different occasions. I even tried rolling back to the configuration from when everything was working, but by that point it simply would not work anymore.

HWiNFO64 readings would appear for a second or two and then disappear from the Sensors list. NV Thermal shows the hotspot correctly, but the second reading constantly shows 255°C, which is obviously incorrect.

I ended up setting a very basic fan profile just to keep everything within a safe range, but it still wasn’t working as it should—nowhere close.

I gave it some time, assuming future updates would fix the issue.

Today, after reading several positive posts from people saying FanControl was working great for them, I decided to try again. I deleted the plugins, updated FanControl, restarted, redid the pairings, and everything is still exactly the same as before—no change, no fix.

I know there is someone out there with a new 5090 and 9950X3D system similar to mine who has figured out how to get FanControl working correctly. I just need to find that person who knows the workaround or the fix.

Maybe a FanControl developer will see this and know what to do or what to try. I am willing to try anything to get this working again.

Current setup:

  • FanControl Version: 251 (.NET 4.8)

  • LibreHardwareMonitorLib Version: 0.9.4.0

  • Credit: Rémi Mercier

  • Plugin Version: 2.0.1.0

As far as plugins go, I found the newest DLLs for all three and added them to the Plugins folder. I also have a premium license for HWiNFO64.

Please, if someone understands this issue, I would greatly appreciate any help in getting FanControl and everything else working correctly again.

I'm trying to get FanControl to work with my RX 6750 XT. I have found this, but can't figure out what exactly to download and install. As of right now, I have ADLXWrapper.dll and ADLXSharpBind.dll, in the FanControls plugin folder. Do I need to download and install ALDX? If so, how?

I have HWInfo as a plugin, and that works.

March 2, 2025 - Enabling the 0% hardware curve should allow your GPU to spin down to 0%. You may also want to download & install the NVidia Thermal Sensors plugin, which provides Memory Junction & Hot Spot temperatures for NVidia GPUs.

r/overclocking on Reddit: Can anyone recommend a gpu fan control software that lets me curve based on JUNCTION temps?
January 17, 2023 -

I'm using msi afterburner for overclocking and fan curve. The overclocking feature is decent enough, but the fan curve can only be adjusted based on the edge temps, and I need it to do junction. Interesting that this software is often considered the holy grail of overclocking software, but I can't simply control fan curve based on junction temp.

Adrenalin software uses junction for fan curves, but I'm cancelling this software from my system. Does anyone know a fan curve software that uses junction, and perhaps a way for afterburner not to interfere with it?

Thanks

So i built my pc a few months ago, i haven't really used it for gaming i built it more for art stuff. i have a nvidia gigabyte vision 3060ti reading and watching reviews on it, it seemed like a solid card, today i decided to play some games like spiderman and a few less demanding games. a few minutes into playing my GPU RAMPED up and i mean ramped over 3500rpm and then went back to normal but then kept ramping up. its strange because my old worse pc never did this i tried downloading after burner to set a fan curve but Geforce experience keeps overriding every software, anyway to fix this??? i could set it to manual in the geforce experience software but then that means even on idle my fans will be spinning which i dont want its very annoying

Most of them are not made to be interfaced by a 3rd party. However, if supported, a plugin may add support for a specific type of laptop. To be clear, you'll be able to install the software, but it won't find any fans or may throw errors. Q: My NVIDIA GPU has 3 fans but only 2 control cards show up.

I've got an old GTX 1080 which I've had to do a fan replacement on. But now when my PC is idle and every other fan in the computer are off, the fans on the GPU will keep spinning up and down every 2 seconds or so, and these aftermarket fans are very rattly when they spin up and cause a very loud burping sound. I'd rather they were always spinning slow on idle as that would be silent in comparison... How can I control the fans of the GPU?
