I was looking for same thing. I only found fan contorl for a MacBook which does not work on Dell Optiplex.

 

what I did though is take a cooling fan from my Xbox 360 (NYKO InterCooler) and hung it on back of Optiplex and it blows out all the hot air.

Makes hardly any noise and drop CPU temp from 160 F to 128 F

*Using Parallels and Windows 7 32 bit playing 3d Golf (direct x - runs horribly on Parallels but is a good heat test)

Then CPU idles at ~95-100 F

 

 

Not a software fix but works just the same - only turns on when it gets hot, shuts off when it is cool
