A fan cooling device and a method of controlling a fan rotation speed are provided. The fan cooling device includes a thermo sensor, a thermo monitor unit, a processing unit, a driving unit, and a fan. The thermo monitor unit compares the sensed result from the thermo sensor with at least one threshold, and decides whether or not to send an interrupt event according to the compared result. The processing unit executes an interrupt service according to the interrupt event, and then sets and outputs a value of the fan rotation speed. The driving unit drives the fan and controls the rotation speed of the fan according to the value of the fan rotation speed. The fan sends out a wind flow to reduce the internal temperature of a computer system or a CPU.
