  • How is this done dynamically? I understand you continuously read the Nvidia GPU temperature, convert it in to a PWM number, this number is written to the pwmconfig. How does fancontrol continuously notified of the updated config? Is fancontrol restarted every time? Seems odd. Can you elaborate how you did this? Commented Mar 25 at 12:01
  • You are correct @Visionscaper. Back then I was restarting the fancontrol service repeatedly to trigger the changes. However, I think this is not a perfect solution and worked at that time. But nowadays (with a lot more low-level understanding of linux and services) I would probably not opt for this solution.
