Is fan performance monitoring possible?

Framework Desktop
1

Is it possible to monitor APU or case fan performance of the Desktop in Windows 11? There doesn’t seem to be any support, even in Adrenalin

For an ad hoc solution, you can first install Framework System with:
winget install framework_tool

Then do:
while ($true) { framework_tool.exe --thermal; Start-Sleep -Seconds 1 }

To get the CPU fan RPM only:
while ($true) { framework_tool.exe --thermal | Select-String -Pattern “Fan Speed:” | Select-Object -First 1; Start-Sleep -Seconds 1 }

Thanks for the pointer @gwiazdorrr

At the Windows command prompt this worked for me

framework_tool --thermal

F75303_APU: 47 C
F75303_DDR: 50 C
F75303_AMB: 49 C
APU: 53 C
Temp 4: 50 C
Fan Speed: 0 RPM
Fan Speed: 231 RPM
Fan Speed: 0 RPM

Framework_tool as a diagnostic

I really wanna see something like this for the PSU fan.

I think the PSU fan stands alone i.e. does not interface with the chipset

Bummer. BTW, Windows 11 recently added the sudo command. I just tried sudo framework_tool –thermals and this automatically elevates permissions for you without a new command window.
