Highlights

  • GPU values: temperature, usage, power and clock of the graphics card, for NVIDIA, AMD and Intel. They are only read while a display shows them.
    • Windows: NVML for NVIDIA cards; for AMD and Intel, the same graphics kernel data Task Manager uses (temperature, usage, clock; no power in watts).
    • Linux: the amdgpu, i915/xe and nouveau drivers, and nvidia-smi for the proprietary NVIDIA driver.
  • Show the GPU on any display: new Device setting (CPU, GPU or Alternate) in the settings window, the tray menu and coolercast set source=gpu|cpu|auto.
  • CH series cases (experimental): CH560 DIGITAL, CH360 DIGITAL and MORPHEUS show the CPU and the GPU at once; CH170, CH270 and CH690 DIGITAL show a CPU or a GPU page.
  • coolercast list and coolercast status show the GPU, and coolercast test has a GPU step.

Help wanted

The CH cases and the NVIDIA path have not been tested on real hardware (the AMD path on Windows was tested with a Radeon RX 550). If you own one, please run coolercast list and coolercast test (with the service stopped) and open an issue with the result, good or bad.

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

curl -LO https://github.com/moicd/coolercast/releases/latest/download/coolercast-linux-x86_64.tar.gz
tar xzf coolercast-linux-x86_64.tar.gz
