hello, I'm in need of help again.

have a fujitsu esprimo e910 desktop. the one for offices that are sold as refurbished right now.
it has one case cooler mounted in front that start for 2 seconds at boot (just a check most probably) then stay off even if cpu goes to 72 degree celsius (max temp I got from stress testing it).
now the second cooler is the cpu cooler. this one starts only when the cpu hits 70 degree. is very silent.

i have no control over this 2 fans. SpeedFan does not detect their rpm. probably this is how this office computers are.

i want to upgrade the cpu radiator (the arctic cooler 12 seems a good budget cooler). or any other low profile cooler for 1155 socket.
my question is, with a new cooler, will i be able to adjust the speed of the fan?
or, as long as the mobo doesn't have such luxury for the stock coolers, this options will not be present even with a new cooler ?
thank you guys

Are there any settings in BIOS, like fan-profiles "silent", "performance"...?

You could always get a fan controller and add it.

Some of the Rosewill case fans include a simple fan controller that fits in one of the expansion slots on the back of the computer.

You won't be able to control the fan through the BIOS or Speedfan if it doesn't work on the stock cooler

As far as the system having issues if nothing is hooked up to the stock fan headers... You might be able to trick the sensor or even just mount the stock fans somewhere else.
