Windows 10: Fans

I am having issues with a brand new computer. It is currently 3 weeks old, I haven't had any issues at all with the computer but that fans will not automatically turn on. I nearly burned myself when handling the computer. Nothing says the computer is overheating and what's more, the heat sense only works when I enter the BIOS settings. The fan only has 2 options: Disable and Enable. When enabled, it runs slightly but never more, even when heating up, and when disabled, the computer only detects excessive heat when entering the BIOS. Once in the BIOS they will fully turn on and slowly wind down as the computer cools as they are designed to do. I am using an HP Envy x360 touchpad, Windows 10. No drivers state any errors nor troubleshooters. The fans are not obstructed in any way. I'm just concerned as to why it can only turn on automatically when accessing the BIOS and nothing else. Additionally, my computer has been up to date on all BIOS updates, Windows Updates, and driver updates. Nothing has been downloaded with the exception of chrome, Word documents, McAfee, Respondus Lockdown browser, and Steam which I have yet to open. This issue started today.

Overclocking / Undervolting guide for Vega 56 or 64?

Here's a quick laundry list:

List of software to use for overclocking and testing
Examples:
Wattman (and how to find and use it, like an overview, including profiles)
Unigine Valley or Heaven (use this for quick testing while changing settings in Wattman and checking for stability / artifacts) ...just suggesting this
How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)

Step-by step overclocking in Wattman
Fan speeds
Power limit
Temp limit
Voltages
Core speeds
Memory speeds

 

Fan control for 4870X2 broken in 1.17

Fixed fan controls yes. Annoying profiles yes. Buggy code yes.

I'd rather just set it and forget it as the feature list of RBE suggested it was capable of doing.
