A really feature-rich application here for those of you who wants a bit more control of your cooling on Linux. CoolerControl v1.4 just released bringing more hardware support, and various improvements.
Not only is it filled full of options, it's also pretty good looking while remaining simple enough that pretty much anyone can understand it.
Here's all that's new in v1.4:
Added
- AMD GPU RDNA 3 fan control (#265)
- NVML usage for Nvidia GPUs (replaces CLI tools) (#288)
- Proper AMD GPU device names from DRM drivers
- PCI ID lookup for hwmon devices
- Various testing scripts for testers
- Option to disable duplicate liquidctl/hwmon device filter
- Vendored build artifacts
Changed
- Major Tauri upgrade - includes dependencies (#286)
- Chart rpm/mhz axis scaling limits removed
- Improved testing artifacts in merge pipelines
- Cleaned up some log messages
- Force application of speed setting when applying a Profile to an additional device channel
- Extend max sensor name length and overflow (#315)
Fixed

Can confirm.
I had never used any fan or RGB controlling software before and it took me maybe an hour or two to get going and configure things the way I wanted them.
Most difficult part was figuring out which fan in the software represented which fan in the hardware - no labels on the cables connecting the fans to the commander core, so I had to do it the hard way...

Minor correction: GitLab, not GitHub ![](https://www.gamingonlinux.com/templates/default/images/emoticons/heart.png)
Been playing around with this on my new build, and while I love CoreCtrl for setting stuff up, this is also a great monitoring tool. I haven't gone through yet to see if there's 100% feature overlap and coverage between the two, though.

So where can i find a deb, snap or a flatpak to install this? The Gitlab page is a convoluted mess!?

Awesome project. I noticed that my temps were quite high and finally cleaned my case from dust and sorted my fans so that they are much more efficient. CPU stays 10c cooler now.

Thanks alot! Tried to install the deb but of course it doesn't work:
It's so sad that a simple install of (also) this app has not been secured or then the package is just broken.

The UI package you're trying to install depends on the daemon package, which is why it fails if you try to install it like that. You'll find detailed install instructions in the Readme on the main page of the Gitlab repo:

Ok, i then tried to install the daemon package, but it gives the exact same dependency error message. So i can't install the dependency to start with what the UI package is dependent on.
Something is wrong, it shouldn't be like this at all installing a simple app

You'll have better luck if you just follow the instructions.

Looks cool, but was going to install it from the AUR package, and it has a ton of Python dependencies plus some Node and Rust. Too many for a relatively simple tool.
