Control a single fan with multiple sensors #11

It would be amazing if you could control a single fan with multiple sensors.

Example: Control System 1 fan (in my case the exhaust on the back) both with CPU and GPU temp (or power, etc.).

That way when either one warms up, the fan can kick up the exhaust of hot air (and the intake of cool one by controlling the other fans). Otherwise by setting just one, you need need to compromise the curve by setting it arbitrarily slow or fast for some scenarios.

There are multiple real world use cases for this where one component might be floored, but the other not so much. Some examples include rendering just on a specific component, gaming (usually extremely hot for the GPU, while CPU is barely warming up) and distributed computing (even though I'm currently using folding on both components, the CPU is warming up much more, unlike my GPU).
