Low fan speed makes my laptop overheat

Latly my fan is very slow and it makes my laptop overheat so much that games goes from steady 30 fps to 1 fps. after 2 or 3 min the lag goes away and than 5 min later its back. How can i increase my fan speed, i know it can run much faster than it does now.

Just by browsing my laptop hit 65 degrees. I tried to open it and clean the dut from the PSU but i cant open it.

When gaming it hits over 80 degrees

 

Now it hits over 90 degrees lol

Hitting 95 now from casual gaming lol how much can it take?

 

Not much more. Somewhere around 100 is the Auto-Shutdown feature designed to keep components from getting fried or damaged. Easiest is to get a notebook cooling pad. Try *this* program to see if you can bump your fan speeds up and cool it down some. Get some compressed air and blow through the vents. Or you can try undervolting your CPU... I know that regularly helps temps.

 

Come on, this is ridiculous. Why can't you get it open? Obviously it has to have some way of being opened up, otherwise it wouldn't be fixable in the case that a part breaks or fails. I think the best possible thing you can do right now is to clean out the dust from the heatsink.

Why can't you open it?

 

I know a LOT of people that while very good with computers are just not comfortable with taking a notebook apart.

 

I guess. But a good way to fix that is to take a notebook apart carefully, then put it back together, turn it on, and see if it still works. It's probably best to do that with a very old laptop though, that isn't your main rig. That's what I did when I was younger, I completely pulled apart my desktop, then put it back together and it still worked. I think that improved my confidence in disassembling a machine when I was young.

 

i did try but it wont open i almot broke the whole thing trying. i could only open the case in the coerns and when i pulled very hard to open it i broke some plastic stuff in there but it still works. I can only open the places for my HD and ram but not my psu or heatsink

 

HP/Compaq notebooks are NOTORIOUSLY difficult to get apart. Last week I had to take apart a DV6z to clean the dust off the heatsink and I would rather shoot my pinky toe off than do it again. No joke.

 

Alright then, if you have any vents on the bottom, like a fan grate, stick a toothpick in the grate to stop the fan from spinning, then blow through the fan grate with a can of compressed air, kind of aiming it through the vent towards the exhaust vent.

Lmao, serious?

 

Ok, il try to do that. Is there any service that clean laptops by the way? Can i like go to a computer store and pay em to open it and clean it?

Just by browsing it hits up to 65 degrees and close to 100 when gaming now and its an celeron and an intel GPU lol.

 

yes the best way is to go to any local computer/notebook service (trusted ones preferred) and have them open and clean the heatsink and fan, and change the thermal paste on cpu.

 

Its not that hard if you follow the service manual to the word. They used to have video disassembly guides but HP removed it not long ago.

HPs not-so-smart design require you to pull apart the notebook into like 100 pieces and take out the whole motherboard just to get to the fans. While most notebooks can easily be accessed by a monkey via a compartment cover on the bottom of the machine

V3000 uses the same Heatsink fan as the dv2000 series so it will look very similar to mine:

 

Some Acer is the same.
Actually my Acer Aspire to be exact.
You need to dismantle the whole damn thing to get to the fan.

 

yeah...rite. most of the acer laptop i would say, hav to dismantle until u can get to the board.

 

Opening up a notebook is not hard,but you should make the static electricity that is in your body go away,simply by touching a metal,if you dont do that you can damage a component inside your laptop.

I opened my desktop's case to replace graphics card and I fu88ed up the whole motherboard,LOL.

Even the da8n tiny electricity in your body can damage a component,so they are sensible!

Like a member in this forum said,opening a laptop is like driving a car,easy but you must be carefull because if you mess up than you fail.

Just being patient and being carefull is enough to open a notebook,also you shouldn't use a great force to remove anything,or it will break.

But people are not mistaken you know,just doing a small mistake can sometimes ruin thousands of dolars

 

Yes, LMAO... I'm serious. I'll work on just about anything, but I really don't like HP/compaq notebooks just for the simple fact that flipfire so elegantly stated.

Thank you... I'm not the only one who thinks HP's internal design is hades.

 

Do not feel bad, you have to do the same thing on my Latitude... Both the palm rest, and bottom case have to come off, the keyboard, the LCD panel, and once you have that, you are about there. Not as hard as other laptops, but really not as easy for most laptop that have a spot that you can remove the cover on the bottom, and have the fan right there.
