The Corsair software allows you to create a custom curve for fan speeds by CPU temperature, which I use. It also has a lot of temperature and speed monitors which are sometimes useful, and RGB effects, which I never use. I believe there are others ways to achieve the fine grained control of fan speeds in Linux (or maybe the BIOS), but it is something I would need to get to grips with before considering moving to Linux.

Why don’t you program the curve in the BIOS?

Because I didn’t even know that was an option until I read this thread. I would need to check what my BIOS supports. This is a recent Gigabyte motherboard and latest BIOS, so I imagine you can do it.

Also dist upgrades. There’s always some shit package that’s breaking at probably a dependency for some others
