FAN NOT RUNNING AT FULL SPEED

[Geek997]

Hello. I am using the following system

HP OMEN 15 with I7 (8750H) abd GTX 1060 MAXQ. My CPU fan runs fine. But, my GPU fan doesnot run at maxmimum, and only at medium (just between maximum and minimum). This causes my GPU to dissipate more heat than CPU and even my CPU heats due to GPU. How to solve this. I want it to run at full speed while playing games

@Geek997 Click here for steps to resolve overheating issues, you could try reducing the visual effects to make a minor change, also, ensure you are using a cooling pad as well, to be on a safer side, as the fan speed is system managed and cannot be controlled by the user, by design.

Here's how you change windows settings to reduce visual effects:

• Go to Start Menu > click on Settings.
• Type performance > choose to Adjust the appearance and performance of Windows.
• In the new window, go to the Visual Effects and select Adjust for best performance.
• click Apply and Ok...this should do the trick.

I must let you know that its normal for any PC to heat up to an extent, and with a CPU such as the one you have, there's nothing to worry about, for details on why you don't need to worry: Click here to go through the CPU specifications, look under Tjunction of the CPU, it supports up to 100°C.
