Highlights

  • Windows efficiency mode (EcoQoS): the service and the tray icon ask Windows to run them as efficiently as possible. On CPUs with efficiency cores (Intel 12th gen and later) Windows schedules them there, at the most efficient clock speed, also on AC power. The settings window and the tray menu run normally while they are open.
  • The priority stays normal on purpose: at idle priority the display would stop updating under full load, exactly when the temperature matters. Because of that, Task Manager may not show the leaf icon.

Install

Windows 10/11: run coolercast-windows-x64.msi. Updating from an earlier MSI keeps your settings. The file is not code-signed yet: if SmartScreen warns, choose More info → Run anyway.

Linux: nothing changes on Linux in this version.

See the README for details.

Notes

  • The displays added in 0.4.0 are still experimental and untested on real hardware; reports are welcome.
  • SHA256SUMS.txt lists the checksums of every file.
