I’ve taken the plunge and installed endeavour on my main computer on my separate ssd and have spent the last couple days configuring it. I decided to take a shot at using lm_sensors and fan speed control, but am hitting a wall with trying to configure the fancontrol.confi. I have a rough idea of what I’m supposed to do but reading the documentation’s confusing me a bit, as well as in the terminal what temps I’m supposed to be paying attention to.
I have an amd ryzen 5 7600 cpu and radeon 6750xt gpu, on a asrock b650i lightning wifi motherboard.
My pc is a SFF so I’d like to tune the fan speeds if I can to make sure my temps don’t get out of control while I’m not looking as I do use the machine for games when i’m not doing work on it.
Running pwmconfig I’ve somehow managed to have my fans perma maxxed out which, though works, is not the solution I’m looking for.
This is the output for devices that’s displayed from pwmconfig
Devices:
hwmon0 is nvme
hwmon1 is nvme
hwmon2 is k10temp
hwmon3 is r8169_0_b00:00
hwmon4 is spd5118
hwmon5 is mt7921_phy0
hwmon6 is amdgpu
hwmon7 is amdgpu
and this is the output for sensors

(I know my one ssd is a bit toasty, I bought copper heat syncs for that, just have to install them when I have a second)
If it’s not clear, I’m a bit of a noob when it comes to linux, but I’ve wanted to make the proper go at it for a while and really am liking endeavourOS. I have it also on my laptop which I have some other issues on concerning nvidia gpu stuff but that’s a separate problem I’m not in a rush to fix.
tldr; pls help me tune/properly set up my fancontrol configuration o7
