# FanControl Application: Rem0o Also called rem0o fancontrol, fan control Rem0o, System Open fan-curve app. You pick the sensor plugins. The process is FanControl.exe. It is not iCUE. ## What you need to know FanControl is open curves plus plugins. It is not iCUE. FanControl.exe uses sensor plugins you choose. iCUE is Corsair. Foxhole samples are not extra sensors Feex invented for this app. - **What is it?**: Fan curve utility **Still current?**: Yes, see Current status **Official download?**: Use the vendor link in this article Feex says If a header is missing, I check which FanControl plugin is loaded. I do not invent a Feex sensor, and I do not open iCUE for a non-Corsair header. ## What is FanControl? FanControl.exe maps sensors you enable (via plugins) to fan headers. iCUE only sees Corsair hubs. This article does not claim Feex provides those sensors. ## If you have never used it If you want fan curves on headers iCUE or the BIOS do not own, FanControl is Rem0o's open app. Download it from getfancontrol.com. You add sensor plugins yourself. It is not Corsair iCUE, and Feex does not invent extra hardware sensors here. ## What is it used for? **Custom fan curves** Pick a sensor plugin, then a curve. iCUE curves stay on Corsair hardware. **Mix of motherboard and other headers** What the plugins expose. Not a Corsair Commander-only list. **Optional start with Windows** So curves apply at sign-in. BIOS curves still win if you leave control there. ## Who is it for? - People whose BIOS fan control is crude - PCs that also run iCUE for lighting only - Users who were told to "just use SpeedFan" ## Current status FanControl (2020) is a current fan curve utility from Rem0o. The vendor still points Windows users at https://getfancontrol.com/. ## How old is it? FanControl launched around 2020 as a LibreHardwareMonitor-based curve tool. SpeedFan is the older, largely abandoned cousin. iCUE is Corsair's vendor host. ## Versions Major channels first. Exact build numbers are not all verified here. FanControl ## System requirements Values follow the publisher's public guidance. Workload still changes the real need. ### Minimum | Operating system | A current supported Windows 10 or Windows 11 release, per the vendor | | ---------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------- | | RAM | Enough for Windows plus this app. Heavy projects want more. | ## Resource profile - **CPU demand**: Follows what you open inside the app **RAM demand**: Follows documents, tabs, or libraries ## Installed processes These executables belong to this product when it is installed. | FanControl.exe | Main Windows executable | | -------------- | ----------------------- | ## Startup components FanControl can start with Windows so curves apply before the desktop heats up. Optional. ## File locations | Typical install | User-chosen folder (often portable) | | --------------- | ----------------------------------- | ## Common problems ### Two hosts on one header iCUE and FanControl will fight. Pick one controller for that fan. ### No sensors until a plugin is added That is by design. Feex does not supply a hidden sensor pack for this app. ## Getting unstuck ### Install from getfancontrol.com or the GitHub Releases feed Rem0o's builds. Skip random "FanControl Pro" zips. ### Enable the sensor plugin the wiki names for your board LibreHardwareMonitor-style plugins are user-selected. This Wiki does not invent Feex sensors. ### Quit iCUE fan control when testing a header One owner per header. Lighting can stay in iCUE if you split duties carefully. ## Alternatives BIOS fan control. iCUE on Corsair hubs. Argus Monitor and FanControl's older cousin SpeedFan. ## Official help and downloads Start with the vendor.
