HP 17.3 inch Laptop PC 17-c3000 (767L6AV)

Hardware monitoring utilities such as Speedfan detect no fan, and I don't hear one. Does my HP Laptop 17-cn3xxx computer have a fan, or does it rely only on passive cooling?

You're very welcome. 

 

Unfortunately, that I wouldn't know.

 

I don't use either of those apps.

 

If the notebook is running hot,  the fan will come on/speed up.

 

If the fan wasn't working properly, The BIOS would report a fan error.

What model Intel processor does it have?

HP Recommended

i7-1355U

HP Recommended

Yes, your notebook has a CPU fan.

 

Only the notebooks with the Pentium and Celeron processors have no fan.

HP Recommended

Thank you. It's so quiet I never hear it go on. Why isn't it detectable in Speedfan or HWMonitor?

Okay, not getting any errors on post, so I guess it's just really quiet, even when the cpu is under full load.

HP Recommended

That's great news that the notebook is running cool.
