2.Update BIOS: The latest announcement from the Microsoft community points out that BIOS updates after May 2024 have significantly improved fan control logic.
3.Use official tools: Refer to the table above to select the corresponding brand of control software.
4.Set up smart curves: It is recommended to maintain a reasonable gradient of 30% rotational speed below 60℃ and 70% rotational speed above 80℃
5.Monitor temperature changes: It is recommended to use tools such as AIDA64 or CoreTemp to monitor real-time temperature.
5. Answers to recent hot questions
Q: Why does the fan spin like crazy after Win11 update?
A: Microsoft confirmed that the latest patch KB5037771 has a power management bug. It is recommended to roll back temporarily or wait for the June update.
Q: Is water-cooling modification worth trying?
A: Actual measurements by Station B’s UP owner "Laptop Transformer" show that moving the water cooling kit may invalidate the warranty, and the cooling effect is only 3-5°C lower than that of air cooling.
Q: How to judge whether the speed is normal?
A: The normal standby state should be between 2000-3000RPM, and the game state should not exceed 5000RPM. If it exceeds 5000RPM, the cooling system needs to be checked.
Summarize: Adjusting the notebook fan speed requires comprehensive consideration of the hardware model, system version and usage environment. It is recommended to use official solutions first and choose third-party tools carefully. Regular maintenance of the cooling system is more effective in extending the life of the equipment than simply increasing the rotation speed.
