Is OculusKiller safe?

Having looked at the source code on this page of the github, it looks to me (as a C# beginner, not an expert) like it reroutes any attempt to launch Oculus VR to instead launch SteamVR by way of changing the directory path.

You don't really need PID, just a decent fan curve with https://github.com/Rem0o/FanControl.Releases
Latest insider preview took away fundamental functions
1 project | /r/Windows11 | 7 Dec 2023

I think you're looking for FanControl https://github.com/Rem0o/FanControl.Releases There is a bit of initial setup but nothing crazy, and it guides you through with a nice and clean UI. Once you're in, you can set your fan curve and all the smaller details if you want, like how long will the fans take to spin up or spin down, or how long to delay a speed change after hitting a certain temperature threshold so that its not constantly revving up and down

You could even replace all the fans with Noctua nf a12s and control using this and still have saved money: https://github.com/Rem0o/FanControl.Releases
Recently built a PC and it was dead silent for the first few weeks, but a couple days ago it started producing this low humming/buzzing sound. Any idea what could be causing this?
1 project | /r/buildapc | 6 Dec 2023

MSI Afterburner should work for gpu fans. Motherboards typically have their own version of software for fan control, so you could use that (dl from mfg website), or there's this one that I know of that should work for any mobo (although there's probably others): https://github.com/Rem0o/FanControl.Releases
