My company IT directed me to a fix and I wanted to share that with anyone who may be having this issue.ġ) I had a defective battery, it was replaced easily with a new one. What else can I do here to stop this excessive fan noise? However, this issue is so sporadic it is hard to be sure.Īll Dell drivers and firmware patches are up-to-date and installed. A quick Google search shows that is well above normal.? I have just now placed the laptop up on two large (empty) coffee cups to allow the bottom of the laptop to "breathe" more.and this actually seems to be helping. Currently they are showing CPU core max temp is around 88C (Core Temp) 79C (Open Hardware Monitor).
The bottom of the laptop where the vent is does feel hot to the touch, so I am running Core Temp and Open Hardware Monitor to check the temperature of the machine. Also, this laptop is less than a year old and has more-than-adequate specs: Core i5 7300U CPU, 512GB NVMe SSD, 16GBs of RAM. My point is I'm not running any VMs, SQL, AutoCAD.nothing that is resource intensive at all. Everything I run on the laptop is very standard: Google Chrome (and/or Firefox, and/or Opera), Outlook, Slack, etc. I check Task Manager and nothing seems to be using a lot of CPU or power. There doesn't seem to be much rhyme or reason to when the fan spins up or why. As such, they've essentially just given up and told me to live with it.but this fan noise is driving me insane and I have to do something about it. They ran the onboard Dell diagnostics, which returned no issues. I opened a ticket with our IT department for this issue.
