Coolercontrol - a GUI to setup fan profiles based on temperature sensors in your system (other than just cpu from the bios) (gitlab.com)

I was just reminded of how useful this was for me, since i was too lazy to setup fan curves in the cli with pwmconfig. This took me 10 minutes of tinkering and my temps went down a lot under load on my gpu and the machine is a lot more silent when idling.

Been using this since it was called Coolero. It's made big strides and it's become the de-facto fan control GUI at this point. Impressive stuff

I still haven't managed to make it work on Nobara. I didn't know it was well known though, I'll give it a try again soon!
