FanControl lets you create detailed fan curves, monitor temperatures, and fine-tune cooling behavior across a wide range of supported PC hardware. The latest release issues various fixes and limits the app to a single service client connection for improved stability.

WTF?! We've seen PC builds that prioritize performance, ones that focus on silence, and those that look like they belong in a cyberpunk art gallery.

While some products perform as advertised, others can be largely ineffective. A new investigation now suggests that one popular thermal paste may actually destroy processors and render them unusable.
