About Argus Monitor
Argus Monitor controls fans on motherboard headers, AIO coolers and external fan controllers, using fixed values or control curves tied to any temperature source such as CPU, GPU, HDD and SSD, motherboard or AIO sensors. Several controllers can run in parallel for each fan, with the highest value applied.
Profiles can be switched from the interface or by hotkey, and hysteresis, averaging and rate limits keep fan speeds steady. It is paid software with a fully functional 30-day evaluation.
Strengths
- Fan curves based on any temperature, including drives and GPU
- Multiple controllers per fan
- Profiles switchable by hotkey
- Hysteresis and averaging for steady fan speeds
Limitations
- Windows only
- Paid after the 30-day trial
- Fan control depends on supported hardware

Alternatives to Argus Monitor
Compare allSoftware that can replace Argus Monitor for an important use case, and what changes if you switch.
FanControl
Controls CPU, GPU and case fans using custom curves from any temperature sensor.
FanControl also drives CPU, GPU and case fans from any temperature sensor with custom curves and hysteresis, and is free, though its source is now closed.
CoolerControl
A Linux application for monitoring and controlling cooling fans, pumps and lighting on supported hardware.
CoolerControl moves fan and pump control to Linux under the GPL, adds lighting control and vendor coolers, but does not run on Windows.
NZXT CAM
A free Windows app that monitors PC performance and controls NZXT fans, lighting and LCDs.
NZXT CAM is free and monitors any Windows PC, but its fan and lighting control only works with NZXT hardware rather than arbitrary motherboard fans.
