I have a problem with my new laptop msi ps42 i7 - fan start cool increasing only after throttling on 90+ degrees.
I think this behavior set by vendor, there is no BIOS settings about this.

I can't use fancontrol because sensors-detect can't find fan sensors.
Code:
 $ sensors
coretemp-isa-0000
Adapter: ISA adapter
Package id 0:  +78.0°C  (high = +100.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
Core 0:        +71.0°C  (high = +100.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
Core 1:        +70.0°C  (high = +100.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
Core 2:        +78.0°C  (high = +100.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
Core 3:        +70.0°C  (high = +100.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)

acpitz-virtual-0
Adapter: Virtual device
temp1:        +82.0°C  (crit = +100.0°C)
temp2:        +27.8°C  (crit = +119.0°C)
temp3:        +29.8°C  (crit = +119.0°C)

acpitz-virtual-0
Adapter: Virtual device
temp1:        +82.0°C  (crit = +100.0°C)
temp2:        +27.8°C  (crit = +119.0°C)
temp3:        +29.8°C  (crit = +119.0°C)

iwlwifi-virtual-0
Adapter: Virtual device
temp1:        +33.0°C 

After throttling cooling is normal and in full load temperature become ~70 degrees and turbine works normal & noisy.

Maybe I am needed to turn on some kernel options? Or there is no fancontrol support for my fan yet?

I write here since my issue could be similar to your. this is the output of my `sensors`
Code:
$ sensors
iwlwifi-virtual-0
Adapter: Virtual device
temp1:        +42.0°C 

acpitz-virtual-0
Adapter: Virtual device
temp1:        +73.0°C  (crit = +120.0°C)

coretemp-isa-0000
Adapter: ISA adapter
Package id 0:  +81.0°C  (high = +100.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
Core 0:        +78.0°C  (high = +100.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
Core 1:        +74.0°C  (high = +100.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
Core 2:        +81.0°C  (high = +100.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
Core 3:        +62.0°C  (high = +100.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)


My issue is that when I compile for a long time (e.g., updating gentoo) my system reboots even though I do not reach 100 degrees. Is there a way such that I can control fan speed, or do something else to reduce the temperature before rebooting? Am I missing something?

Many thanks
