Using Argus Monitor you control all fans that are connected to supported hardware, be it the fan headers on your motherboard, an AIO cooling solution or an external fan controller. You can set fixed fan control values or configure control curves to control them based on any temperature source, like CPU or GPU temperature, HDD/SSD temperatures or temperature readings from motherboard or AIO sensor channels.

With the multi controller feature, you can have multiple controllers run in parallel for every fan and then use the maximum control value to set the fan speed.

Also available are fan profiles (presets you can switch between using the GUI or hotkeys) and options like hysteresis, temperature averaging over time or rate limits to keep the fan speeds as steady as possible.

RGB Control

Argus Monitor is able to control RGB functionality of certain RGB devices and can either enable existing hardware RGB effects directly supported by the hardware as well as setting RGB LEDs to either a static color or to a color that is controlled by any temperature source.

Currently Argus Monitor offers support for RGB control for the following devices:

  • Asus Geforce RTX 3000/4000 GPUs
  • Corsair CommanderPro
  • Corsair Corsair Lighting Node Core/Pro
  • Corsair CommanderCore (not Core XT)
  • Corsair iCUE H100i/H150i Elite RGB
  • Corsair Pro RGB (H80i, H100i, H110i, H115i, H150i)
  • EVGA Geforce RTX 3000 GPUs
  • NZXT Kraken X2 (X52, X62, X72)

We intend to add support for more RGB devices in future version, but given the multitude of different RGB hardware, each of which having a unique communication protocol, we are dependent on the support of our users.

If you have any feedback to the existing RGB functionality of Argus Monitor or own any RGB capable device that is not yet supported by Argus Monitor and are willing to help us adding support for said hardware by running a test version or Argus Monitor we are happy to hear from you.
