(I have already renewed thermal paste several times with proper technique and materials.)

on moderate-low settings, GPU and CPU get very hot and it usually shuts down my computer immediately (thankfully I use SSD). But as soon as I boot into Windows 10 (or Ubuntu), my fan slows down and gets hardly to speed up. While I am using memtest64 (It is located before the boot), laptop fan can get its full speed without any problem. I have a dual boot (legacy) of Windows 10 and Ubuntu 16.04. Make sure to set a constant respin period, a large spin down time, and ec support enabled.I have a Samsung laptop which is around 7 yrs old. The fan tab is hard to access, it's partly blocked by another tab I've got a table below of what fan settings to use and ignore.įan settings to use: Hwinfo Reported (RPM)įan Settings to Avoid (or are redundant): Hwinfo Reported (RPM) Hwinfo must be open or minimized with this fan tabīoth fans are controlled with only the CPU fan section, and at some set rpm levels the fans act wierd or don't work at all. Make sure to set temp sensor sources for both the cpu and gpu. Unfortunately both fans can't be controlled independently but there's still many more than 3 different levels of fan options. So I've got a decent solution going here with fan control with hwinfo.
