    Hey all, it's been awhile since my last visit when I disassembled and re-assembled my laptop to clear out the GPU fan. There was a big clump of dust stopping the fan from running at all, but after cleaning/updating the BIOS I'm starting to get very high GPU temps again and it's very frustrating (screen goes black etc) I was wondering if there was anyway to manualy control the fan on these bad boys
