Consider your concerns carefully. The issue seems new since you reinstalled Windows, so checking if a fan splitter could help might be worthwhile.

CPU_OPT typically relies on CPU_FAN settings and can't be adjusted independently. It usually mirrors the behavior of your CPU fan's current activity. Generally, you maintain full authority over fan operation at specific temperatures through the BIOS fan tuning options. Pre-built or default fan profiles are often suboptimal and overly aggressive.
