![]() Still, the temps read by those sensors are displayed on the front of their Controller panels and some users find that info useful for setting fan speeds. For that reason in part, VERY FEW such Controllers actually use those measured temperatures for automatic fan speed control by far the majority depend on your MANUAL control decisions. ![]() One problem with these may be that making good thermal contact with the mobo components can be tricky and hard to maintain - sensors may work loose from their intended contact points. There are a few such Controllers that include temperature sensors of their own to connect to the Controller, and you must decide where to place those to display what you decide are temperature points relevant to your decisions on fan speed. HOW do you decide? You can use whatever software tools your mobo has to display the temperatures measured at a sensor on the motherboard and the one inside the CPU chip, and use them to guide how fast to run the fans. That is, YOU decide how fast each fan (or group) should run and set that with its controls, and those speeds are kept constant until you change them. ![]() Almost ALL use MANUAL control for every channel. Many have several separate output channels so you can control different fan groups separately. Many are designed to fit into a 3½" or 5¼" front panel slot so you can see their displays and use their manual controls. ![]() Virtually ALL third-party Fan Controllers are stand-alone devices that do NOT need any connection to the mobo.
