HP Spectre blows. Literally. The fan runs every few minutes, and it's as loud as a server.

My computer fans run all the time. When the screen is turned off, when I use it with the screen barely lit... always.

Every few minutes, the fan turns on and runs at a top speed for 5-10 minutes at a time. For no reason.

I'm using A WEB BROWSER and OUTLOOK. Wow. Really intense use.

I'd like to dial back my 6 core processor speeds to like 10% and see if this helps, but I'm unable to figure out how to do this.

My software and firmware are pretty much all up-to-date. Maybe I have a Windows update, but that's definitely not going to fix the problem.

It's extremely frustrating to have spent like $2K on new machine and have this terrible of an experience. The thing literally gives me headaches to use. NEVER BUY A SPECTRE.

I look up other people's experiences, and they're having the same issue. HP has made a DUD.

Wish I would've gone Dell or anything else, honestly. Class action lawsuit: sign me up.
