    what do the fan levels (0, 1, 2, 3 etc). correspond to? are those just arbitrary level or do they correspond to specific fan rpm's?

    for example:
    Level=60 0
    Level=65 1
    Level=75 3

    thanks.

    try them and see what happens, not specific fan speeds but more like different levels.

    in my case only 0,1,3,6, and 64 actually change fan speeds.
