In my system (full configration below), I have an EK XTop Revo D5 pump connected to the motherboards W_PUMP_1 connector, a Bitspower temp sensor in the reservoir connected to the motherboard's W_IN connector and a Phyboia inline temp sensor in the CPU block output port connected to the W_OUT connector. My radiator fans are connected, via a splitter, to the motherboard's CPU_FAN connector. I am using the BIOS to control the water pump speed and fan speed and am using HWInfo64 v6.08-3830 to monitor everything.
I see the water pump speed and fans speed reacting to the BIOS's controls but the temperatures and speeds reported by HWInfo do not match the temperatures and speeds that are set in the BIOS profiles. The BIOS uses the CPU temperature to control the fan speed and the W_OUT sensor to control the pump speed.
The CPU fans are set to go to 100% speed at 70C, but HWInfo only shows them hitting max speed at about 80C (I can confirm the speeds audibly since these are noisy fans at max speed). This implies to me that HWInfo and BIOS have differing opinions on the interpretation of the readings coming from the CPU fan speed sensors or differing opinions of the output of the CPU temperature sensor.
I see a similar discrepency between the HWInfo W_OUT sensor reading and the reported water pump speeds. My system is very stable at a reported W_OUT reading of 30C (according to HWInfo), but the pump speed that HWInfo reports at 30C (4600 RPM) corresponds to what the BIOS profile should be using for a temperature of 34C. At 30C the BIOS would be using a pump speed of 4000 RPM).
Does anyone know of any reasons for these discrepancies?
This is a WIndows 10 system. I have attached a HWInfo report file.
My configuration is as follows: (BIOS and all drivers are latest available)

380GB Intel Optane 905P SSD (boot)
2TB Intel 660P SSD (data)
8TB WD MyBook (ext backup)
EVGA GeForce GTX 1080ti 11GB
