SpeedFan is a small and very robuts application can that monitor the fan speeds, temperatures and voltages of your computer. It can also access S.M.A.R.T. info and/or temperatures for supported hard disk drives. It can even change the FSB on some hardware. It is a hardware monitoring program but its main feature is controling fan speeds according to the temperatures inside your PC, thus reducing noise and power consumption.
Latest Changes:
- Added detection and support for internal temperature sensors on multiprocessor AMD K8 (Sempron, Athlon 64 and Opterons) systems
- Added full support for ADM1026
- Added full support for SMSC SCH311x
- Added full support for MAX6640
- Added full support for INTEL 631xESB SMBus
- Added full support for ADT7473
- Added LPC47M534 fan support
- ADT7473 and ADT7476 temperatures now properly handle offset 64 setting
- Fixed W83637HF PWM MODE 3 and PWM 3 ENABLE setting
- Fully verified DFI LP NF4 support
- Added a check to skip SCSI disks that return invalid LOG SENSE pages (usually are EIDE/SATA disks where the driver tries to emulate some SCSI specific calls)
- Added preliminary detection of NS PC8374L, NS PC87427 and WINBOND W83627DHG
- Added an additional check in LM80 detection to avoid some false positives
- Improved ICH7-M support
- Added /NOAMDK8SCAN command line switch
- 100% fan speeds on program exit is no longer a default
