Where to find resistor responsible fan speed control
Here I've got motherboard with missing 2 components.
They are responsible for left fan speed control without them fan is spinning with one speed - I worry if I start using 100% CPU and GPU - chips will burn :(
...below Fan Connector
...and here is how good motherboard looks like.
(showing resistor with engraved P is missing and black component)
Questa è una buona domanda?

The chip which has a P on it is a fuse link for the fan. If you remember back in the day we had screw-in house fuses. back then when you didn't have a fuse you could cheat by using a penny to wedge into the socket. Boy! That was bad news back then better than 20 % of house fires where caused by people doing this!
So what does that have to do with your MacBook Pro?? Someone bridged the fuse in a similar manner using solder! Not good! If the fuse burn't there was a reason! So by defeating its function you put the rest of your system at risk.
