Fans don't Spin according to the applied settings.
I have an Alienware M18 R1 and it has a low fan speed cap at 1300RPM that starts the CPU1 and GPU3 fans at around 55C the Problem is the 1300RPM make a noise that no one can bare so I had to use the AlienFX tool to fix it at first it didn't work when I had the 1.15.0 bios version because it always no matter what I Do in AlienFX both fans spins first at 1700 for 2sec and then to 1300rpm for 15 sec with the noise but when I took the risk to update the bios to 1.16.0 I became able to fix the CPU1 fan at 1500RPM when below 58C and not spin the GPU3 fan until it gets to 63C same about the other 2 fans the CPU2 and GPU4
however today all this changed I can't fix the fans at 1500 it doesn't register sometimes it fixes at 2000rom sometime at 1800rpm even though I already did the check max boost and disabled AWCC.
Now both fans sync the start and fixes at 1300rpm and I have no idea how to fix it.
do I need to do something in the advanced bios setting do I need to install the AlienFX again of what I'm Lost here Because I only Use AlienFx not The AWCC so it's either a fix or Myu PTSD Gonna break this Laptop when the Fans starts in quite mode.

Caddy Corner from FAN2, somewhat smaller with long vapor chamber
I don't know if this helps, but here is how the m16/m18 fans are represented in AlienFX.
Also, in your screenshot, you have GPU 3 "selected" and when I do that, I make sure I check the boxes for CPU and GPU Internal Thermistor, since they are part of a shared "vapor chamber" and one heating up can cause the other's fan to spin higher to help support shedding the excess heat. For CPU 1, I do the same where I select both CPU and GPU Internal Thermistor checkboxes so I have the correct inputs for setting the fan speed curves.
Fan control is indirect at our systems, so it can't be set below BIOS level, just above it (add more cooling).
So "boost", not a fan RPM percent, in fact, but how much power add to fan.
I got fan names from Alieware ACPI functions, so Dell threat it like this (and - by the way - only use one temperature to control it).
