Gigabyte has just launched its i-Cool software which control clock and fan noise. It looks very nice and you can get the jist of it in the press release section.

In today’s environment, PC’s thermal and acoustic performance is becoming more and more important. A desirable PC should be cool and quiet; GIGABYTE i-Cool utility allows users to reduce heat generated by CPU through reducing the CPU clock speed and enabling CPU fan to run slower and quieter. The GIGABYTE i-Cool utility achieves this through 5 CPU power usage settings targeting applications that require different performance levels. Additionally, it also reduces the CPU fan speed to achieve best thermal and acoustic performance ratio!
