I have working fan control using this page to get fan control working in the first place:

and once I could use 'full-speed' to set the fan speed I moved on to thinkfan.

Using thinkfan I just have the max heat level set at "level disengaged" (in quotes), and everything is working perfectly. My x201 sounds like a jet engine exactly as I want it to during encodes! :)
