account_circle access_time2018-11-13

You might have several cooling fans installed on your PC. If you are a laptop user, there is no way you can add a fan. But the thing which matters most is whether you are getting full performance from your fans or not. Today we will discuss how to increase the fan speed of laptops and desktop computers.

Improve Fan Speed on Your Laptop

If you want to increase fan speed on your laptop, you can take help from the following tips:

Adjust Power Setting

By default, most laptop fans are set to active on both battery and power. But if you had installed some 3rd party tweaking software to save your laptop battery, those might change the default settings. As a result, your laptop cooling fan might no longer be active on either battery or power or both conditions. So you can check it and fix it if the setting were altered. To do it, right click on the laptop battery icon, then click ‘Power Options’. Then go to ‘Change plan settings’ of your current power plan. It can be Balanced, High performance or Power Saver. Remember that you have to do the same for all power plans depending on your use.

Now after you have clicked ‘Change plan settings’, you will find an option named ‘Change advanced power settings’. Then look for ‘Processor Power Management’ in the menu. Now select ‘System cooling policy’ from its submenu. In the drop-down menu, there will be two options: On battery and Plugged in. If any of those were ‘passive’, make it active. Then click Apply and Ok. Thus you can be sure of your laptop’s CPU fan performance.

Clean Laptop Air Vents and Fan

If your laptop is under warranty, never follow this step. After your warranty period is over, you should open your laptop body to clean its CPU fan, air vents and all other components from dirt and dust. There might be food particles, ants, hairs etc. inside your laptop that has been blocking your CPU fan performance. You shouldn’t use a blower to clean dust from your laptop because the components are more delicate than those of desktop computers. Use a soft brush and clean all the everything including the fun and air vents.

Moreover, you shouldn’t keep your laptop on your lap or a solid surface which will totally block the flow of air underneath the laptop. You should use a laptop cooler or laptop desk where there is space for air ventilation under the laptop’s fan. Otherwise, your laptop will get hotter as the heated surface won’t be cooled down by the air. To increase fan speed on your laptop, you must follow the aforesaid instructions.

Improve Fan Speed on Desktop Computer

If you want to improve fan speed on a computer, please try to follow these steps:

Adjust Your BIOS Settings

You need to get into the BIOS menu of your computer motherboard. You need to figure it out by yourself how to enter the BIOS menu of your motherboard while booting your computer. It has to be done by pressing Del, Esc or a function key such as F12, F10 etc. Then you have to reach the Fan Speed Control menu and adjust the fan speed to the maximum. You should also keep the BIOS driver of your PC updated.

Using 3rd Party Software

There is some software that can let you control the CPU fan performance. If you want to improve fan speed on your computer, use the most popular utility software ‘Speedfan’. It can let you check the temperature of your PC components and also take necessary actions by controlling the speed of cooling fans.

Cooling is an important aspect of maintaining your computer. Without a proper cooling system, your computer components may be prone to severe hardware damage. CPU fan performance must not be overlooked whether you are a heavy user or not. Buying good quality cooling fans is also very important. You can buy the best cooling fans in Bangladesh from Star Tech.
