Noisy Fan Omen 880-p0xx

[Duddingston]

Hi - my Omen is within warranty.  The fan connected to the liquid cooling for the CPU is noisy when idling and really picks up when gaming.  How do I check it's functioning correctly?

Thanks

Here are my 'stats' - first screen shot is heating up (and getting pretty noisy) and the second is cooling down, having closed the game.  Do temps and RPM look normal?

@Duddingston,

Welcome to the HP Forums!

Thank you for posting your query on this forum, it's a great place to find answers.

I reviewed your post and I understand that the fan is noisy on your computer.

Don’t worry, I assure you I will try my best to get this sorted.

In order that I may provide you with an accurate solution, I will need a few more details.

• When was the last the time it was working fine?
• Have you made any software or hardware changes on the computer?
• Are you getting any error about computer overheating?
• Have you performed any troubleshooting steps before posting?

While you respond to that, I recommend you update the bios from the below link and check if it resolves the issue.

Thanks for your reply.  I've installed the latest bios and I think it's made a very slight positive impact.  The computer is still produces more noise than I would like, but I think it's a design/ build issue rather than anything firmware or software related.  I may consider replacing the liquid cooling kit in the future.

Thanks for your help.
