Several sensors, like Winbond's and the AS99127F support fan speed changing, as well as others from Maxim, Myson, Analog Devices, National Semiconductor and ITE, but the hardware manufacturer must have connected the relevant pins to some additional, yet trivial, circuitry. SpeedFan can change the FSB on some hardware (but this should be considered a bonus feature). By properly configuring SpeedFan, you can let it change fan speeds based on system temperatures. SpeedFan monitor temperatures from several sources. SpeedFan works with Windows 9x, ME, NT, 2000, 2003, XP, Vista, Windows 7, 2008, Windows 8, Windows 10, Windows 11 and Windows Server 2012.

What operating systems are compatible with SpeedFan?

SpeedFan can also read S.M.A.R.T information from your hard drives, show CPU usage, chipset information, core temperatures, change clock speed, and analyze voltages. What other features does SpeedFan offer besides controlling fan speed? Once installed, SpeedFan will automatically detect if your hardware is compatible and advanced features are presented. SpeedFan is able to control the fan speed of most fan makes and models, but this will ultimately depend on your motherboard's sensor chip and capabilities. Can SpeedFan control the fan speed of any fan? SpeedFan is a hardware monitor software that can access temperature sensors, but its main feature is that it can control fan speeds – depending on the capabilities of your sensor chip and your hardware – according to the temperatures inside your PC, thus reducing noise and power consumption.
