Excessive heat can also cause a significant decrease in performance as most processors automatically reduce the speed of the processor to help compensate for heat-related problems. This can cause the processor, memory (RAM), and other hardware to overheat which may lead to a potential hardware failure. Lint and dust accumulation prevents the air from flowing around the cooling fins and causes the fan to work harder.īlocked air vents can cause serious performance issues by restricting airflow.

I've heard the fans at full speed and they should be there more often when it is required.It is important to keep dust from accumulating in the computer and provide adequate ventilation to help reduce heat. I know some people complain of noisy fans etc, this is not the same thing. This will ONLY be useful for your company AND your community. The motherboard control of fan speed is TOO CLUNKY and is making computers too hot. Just an allowance on choosing the parameter. Please have one of your software engineers create a bios update that allows this ability immediately, within one week.Īgain - WITH DELL APPROVED SPECS, so the fan speeds wont be overclocked or underclocked. Otherwise you will be replacing more units. It waits too long to cool down, Or doesn't even go into full fan speed!! You are shooting yourself in the foot Dell.

My laptop is getting too hot, it is absolute NONSENSE to restrict this ability. I specifically need to increase my fan speed EARLIER (not exceeding dell specs) so that the computer will stay cool. Can be a simple control utilizing Dell approved specs. There NEEDS to be a utility or BIOS update to ALLOW Fan control on Dell xps 15, at the very least to Allow it to go into high performance fan speeds EARLIER.
