# Fan Control
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This is a very early and highly experimental fan controller for Windows build based
|
||
|
|
on `linux/jupiter-fan-control.py` available on SteamOS.

|
## 1. Usage
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can download latest precompiled build from Releases tab. Currently the application requires
|
||
|
|
administrative privileges in order to read various temperature sensors.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It provides 3 modes of operation:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. **Default** - use EC to control fan (as done today)
|
||
|
|
1. **SteamOS** - use reimplemented `jupiter-fan-control.py` (as in SteamOS when Fan Control is enabled)
|
||
|
|
1. **Max** - blow at full speed.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## 2. How it works?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
See [Risks](#4-risks).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## 3. Limitations
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
As of Today (Nov, 2022) the GPU temperature is missing on Windows. Which makes it a little incomplete.
|
||
|
|
However, it should be expected that GPU temperature is "kind of similar" to CPU due to GPU being in the same
|
||
|
|
silicon. But! The device might overheat and break due to this missing temperature. **So, use at your own risk.**
