Hey guys, my laptop has 7000 Max value in Hwinfo. i was wondering what should be the safest value to set via HWInfo so i can reduce my laptop temperature and is it safe to change the value or will it damage my laptop's fan.

Specs:
core i7-2670QM
8gb Ram
GT555m 3GB
Windows 8.1
 
Solution
7000 is ok. It is generally better to have louder fans than quieter ones if the temps are getting critical. And just to let you know, 7000 is nothing compared to my max, 25,000.
