Product: HP Stream 14
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi everyone I recently bought HP Stream 14 laptop as it was cheap but I noticed there is no fan. There are no vents anywhere and I cannot hear any fan noise. The laptop does seem to get really hot even when I had Ubuntu running on it. Can someone tell me if this is normal to not have a fan? And what can I do to stop it from overheating because it gets really hot from the bottom and the keys get hot. Should I buy a laptop cooling pad?

Greetings,

I also have an HP Stream 14 and this problem is normal. I recommend you buy a cooling pad to prevent damaging hardware.
