All those settings refer to the HSF. The first setting is what your motherboard will try and keep your CPU temp at.
The second is fairly obvious, the minimum speed the fan is allowed to turn (as philbar says you should have this as high as it will go, or at least the % it gets to before it gets annoyingly loud).
The third depends on if your HSF is a 4-pin or a 3-pin (if it's plugged into the mobo).
