Help: Fan speed management

[Keyfaiv]

Good morning, I am the owner of a Victus by HP Laptop 16-e0047nl and I have a specific request. To manage workload distribution and fan speed, it is mandatory to use OMEN Gaming Hub. Unfortunately, the fan speed is poorly managed, and I am looking for an alternative solution. When processor load and temperature increase, the fans spin at an insufficient speed to cool the system properly. I am forced to set the fans to MAX speed instead of AUTO. Is there any tool that allows me to progressively adjust the fan speed?

@Keyfaiv, Welcome to the HP Support Community!  

Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding your Fan speed management! 

We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.  

To manage the workload distribution and fan speed on your Victus by HP Laptop 16-e0047nl, using OMEN Gaming Hub is indeed the recommended approach. Here are some relevant features and modes within OMEN Gaming Hub that you might find useful:

Performance Control Features

OMEN Gaming Hub offers various modes to manage performance and fan speed:

• Comfort Mode: Lowers CPU and GPU temperatures for general tasks.
• Performance Mode: Optimizes gaming performance, increasing power to the CPU and GPU, which might increase heat and fan noise.
• Auto Mode: Automatically adjusts fan speed to the optimal level for the selected performance.
• Max Fan Mode: Enables maximum cooling by bypassing default settings, ideal when dealing with high temperatures.
• Thermal Control Options:
  • MAX: Operates the fan at maximum speed regardless of load.
  • AUTO: Adjusts the fan speed according to the system load, optimized by the BIOS.
  • MANUAL: Allows for manual adjustment of fan speed, providing a balance between performance and noise levels.

Tips for Optimizing Cooling

If you're experiencing issues with fan speed management, here are some general tips to help improve your system's cooling efficiency:

• Place the laptop on a hard surface (like a table) to ensure adequate airflow.
• Clean the fan periodically to remove any dust that may hinder cooling.
• Use a docking device to slightly elevate your laptop and increase airflow.

 

Take care, and have an amazing day!

My problem is very simple: when the CPU temperature rises above 80°C, the fans do not increase their speed; I am forced to manually set the fan speed to maximum. Since the official software does not function correctly, I hoped to create fan intervention profiles, but no software allows interaction with the fans, which are never detected. All the hardware has been checked multiple times.

Hi @Keyfaiv,

I hear you loud and clear. The issue you’re facing with your Victus by HP Laptop 16-e0047nl is frustrating, especially when you’ve got the fans barely reacting even though your CPU’s basically melting at 80°C. Let's look at what you can do since OMEN Gaming Hub isn’t cutting it.

What You Can Try Instead:

BIOS Update

Make sure your BIOS and OMEN Gaming Hub are fully updated. Sometimes HP adjusts fan behavior with BIOS firmware tweaks.

Go to HP Software & Drivers Page

Search for Victus 16-e0047nl

Install the latest BIOS update, thermal management firmware, and chipset drivers.

Use Performance Mode + Max Fan Combo

If Auto doesn't work:

Set to Performance Mode

Then toggle Max Fan ON only when needed (use a temp monitoring widget or overlay)

Use HWiNFO64 or Core Temp to monitor CPU temps.

This gives you some manual fan trigger control based on actual load.

I hope this helps.

I finally solved my laptop fan management problems. After months and a lot of money spent, I found a free SW called "OmenMon: Hardware Monitoring & Control Utility". With this, as soon as the processor temperature tends to rise, the fans intervene and bring it back to acceptable values ​​(this was the behavior that the PC had when I bought it, while now, using the official profiles of the "Omeng Gaming Hub" App, it does not work properly). This very light app finally makes my PC work, which I feared having to replace.
