Why do you control the fans when the motherboard has a built in temperature sensor that will control them for you? Windows 11 consumes a standard interface like ACPI/PECI and uses that to collect system data.
MSFT does have an article for people complaining about this issue, the accepted answer is updating your bios drivers/firmware.

I thought that was obv. EDIT : -- but the moboo SHOULD NOT BE GETTING FUCKING SMOKING HOT when browsing FN YOUTUBE (again::: THE SAME FN HARDWARE)
- bastardoperator 3y agoIt's far from obvious because the amount of heat generated inside of a laptop is going to require constant airflow. The idle temperature of a CPU is 86 to 104 which is always going to be warm and browsers use significant amount of resources and even more so when they're playing video. There is never a time when your fans should be off, ever. Even liquid cooled CPUs require airflow to dissipate heat.
- FirmwareBurner 3y agoThe fan sped of your laptop is controlled by the controller on the motherboard which ahs its own firmware, not by windows. Yes your laptops may be the same model, but oine might have different thermal paste application, more dust, etc. Or on your Win11 install you have something messed up that maybe messes with your HW acceleration when watching youtube, who knows, you haven't really provided any valuable diagnostic info other than "my laptop overheats". Have you tried a clean Win install?
