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.

Since there is no screenshot in the repo i thought i'd drop this here. You don't need to install any GUI app since the daemon starts a webserver on localhost:11987 which looks like this:

Love this product. Run my water cooling profiles on it.

Nice find, i install it right now and compare it to fancontrol-gui

fancontrol-gui is nice and all... but it's annoying sometimes and it doesn't automatically recognize my NVidia GPU.

I also stumbled upon fancontrol-gui but it seemed a bit dated to me (last commit 2 years ago).

About nvidia: there is a section in the documentation. Coolercontrol relies on hwmon, which has a system wide scope.
