Semi-automatic bash script for triggering NVIDIA GPU fan in Linux

https://gist.github.com/mypapit/01770a1fa47826db1f50caf45f6a9035.js

Hello everybody. I’m sharing a handy script I use to semi-automatically check my GPU temperature and turn on the fan if things get a bit too warm.

I run this on my dedicated SoHo PC server, which hosts a modest LLM and a Minecraft server (yes, both at the same time).

Feel free to drop any suggestions or ideas in the comments. I’d love to hear how you’d improve it!

p/s: I’ve used GWE and CoolerControl, but it doesn’t fit my use case.

  1. I have been exploring for a bit for any high-quality
    articles or blog posts in this sort of house . Exploring in Yahoo I ultimately stumbled upon this website.
    Reading this information So i’m satisfied to exhibit that I’ve an incredibly excellent uncanny feeling I
    came upon just what I needed. I most indisputably
    will make certain to don?t put out of your mind this web
    site and provides it a glance on a relentless basis.

  2. Great script for keeping your SoHo server cool under the pressure of running both an LLM and Minecraft simultaneously! I can almost hear the fan whirring in anticipation. Maybe next you can add a feature to automatically generate a Mojang has been detected notification when the GPU temp spikes? Who knows, maybe your server will start double as a theme park ride! Keep up the cool work, and thanks for sharing!
