Product: OMEN by HP 16.1 inch Gaming Laptop PC 16-wf0000 ICTO Base Units
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11

Is there a possibility to set fan speeds without using Omen Gaming Hub on my device? The app is simply atrocious, filled with unnecessary features, ads and distractions, and lately it's been using A LOT of memory and noticeably slowing down my machine. I tried setting fan to always on in BIOS, but it doesn't seem to do anything, fan works for a bit on startup, and then turns off. I would really like to find a solution, if I can't use my laptop's basic feature without an ad-ridden app that eats so much resources it feels like it's mining bitcoin, I would be very disappointed.

Hi @StrayBeast 

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community.

 

Thank you for posting your query.

 

I understand your concern regarding the Omen Gaming Hub application. At present, fan speed control is designed to be managed exclusively through Omen Gaming Hub, and BIOS settings such as ‘Fan Always On’ only ensure minimal cooling but do not override dynamic fan control. While you realize the application may feel resource‑heavy, it remains the supported method for customizing fan behavior. I recommend ensuring you are on the latest version of Omen Gaming Hub, as updates often address performance and stability issues. If the app continues to impact system performance, we can help troubleshoot further or escalate your feedback to the product team.

 

Please refer the link for which models you can control the Fan https://support.hp.com/ie-en/document/ish_11746514-11746559-16 

 

Take care and have an amazing day!

I'm an HP Employee.
