Any possibility of increasing fan speed on dv5 1045tx

I want to increase the fan speed because my dv5 1045tx gets too hot. On idle my  cpu ranges from 45Cto 55C  and my gpu stays at about 60C. When I play any game(like cod4 on highest and lowest graphics settings) my laptop's gpu goes up to 91C to 98C and cpu going to about 80C to 90C. Old games like prince of persia warrior within bring my cpu up to 95C to 98C. Without being able to increase fan speeds, I lost my freedom of playing games. Can someone please help?
Used speedfan to check temps

Many times a laptop overheating is directly related to the cooling of the processor. The main culprit is the fan. The fan sucks in air from the bottom and blows it out the side. It will also suck in hair, dust, and other debris. That stuff often gets trapped by the heat sink and over time builds up in a layer which chokes off the cool air going to the processor making the fan work harder.

What I recommend is getting some canned air and blowing out the vents in the side and bottom of the laptop. If after doing this you still have problems with over-heating, and your laptop is in warranty, you can take your laptop to a HP Authorized Service Center and ask them to clean the fan and heatsink. You can check your warranty here:

If it is out of warranty, consider searching for the maintenance manual for your specific model, in the manual there are schematics for taking apart the laptop. Cleaning the fan is much easier that removing a motherboard, so don't feel to intimidated by the idea. Also you can remove the heatsink and then remove the thermal grease and apply a new layer which also helps alleviate heat related issues.

  • Increase Fan Speed

    How can I increase the internal fans in my computer? I only want like a 10% or so increase because the thing just gets so darn hot when I play games...Is there an easy way to control it so I can even create a script that when I have the game loaded it will increase their speed 10-20% and when I quit they will revert to default?

    Download and install SMCFanControl: http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/31029
    With this program you can increase the default fan speeds. You can also create multiple presets for instance one for a slightly increased fan speeds which you may keep it at during normal use. Then have a another higher setting that you set it to when you are going to play games. This will require you to manually change the setting each time. It's easy enough to do though.
    If you are not already I would recommend installing iStat Pro or Temperature Monitor so that you can monitor your iMacs internal temperatures. This will help you to determine the best settings for your fans.

  • Windows 7 - Possible to adjust fan speed UP with "official" tool?

    I just got a new T500 with the switchable graphics option, and windows 7 Pro x64  installed.
    When playing a game like TF2(i.e. maxing out the ATI discrete card), the system gets fairly hot - Not critically, but the rear-left corner of the system gets hot enough to be annoying against my leg.
    As such, I'm looking for a way to increase the fan speed at higher temps - when I'm gaming, I don't really care about noise; I either have loud sounds happening or headphones.
    Is there any more-or-less official solution to do what I want, or do I have to resort to an unofficial tool like [url=http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/How_to_control_fan_s​peed#For_Windows]This[/url] one?
    Thanks,
    -Robbie

    so you are using the laptop on your leg? there is no official tool as such for setting the fan speed at certain level, as it is regulated by the computer thermal management circuitry as needed.
    However, i highly suggest you try to use a laptop cooler, and don't use the laptop on your leg when playing games, as prolonged usage could cause first degree burn to your skin. This is why some laptops are called notebook and carries a warning against using the laptop on your lap.

  • How to increase fan speed on HP pavilion dv7

    i have a major problem with my fans on my pc. It often reaches 80-90 degrees celcuis, when i have been playing a fairly simple game for about 20 minutes. does anyone know what to do? and it dosent seem like i can increase my fan speed in any way. i have been trying almost everything i can find on the internet. please help

    Hello themanafreak.  I understand your notebook is getting warm during use.
    First, you should ensure that the cooling system of the notebook is free of dust and debris but cleaning the notebook as per these instructions.
    Also, another good step to take is to ensure that you have the latest version of the BIOS installed.  I can locate the latest BIOS for you if you provide me with your product number.  This document can show you where the product number is located. Finally, I do not know of a way to increase the fan's speed itself but you can set the fan to "always be on" by doing the following.
    Reboot your computer and press F10 until the BIOS loads.Navigate to the System Configuration section.Ensure that "Fan Always On" is set to enabled.Navigate to the Exit section and save your changes.
    Have a great day!

  • Increased Fan Speed While Playing Halo 3

    Hi Sir,
    While i was playing a demo version for Halo 3 on my macbook, the speed of the fan increased. Is that normal?
    And Do you recommend me to use the macbook to play the game or should i buy imac for it?
    With Regards
    Vikram

    Yes, high fan speed should be expected for a high demand game.
    The Fans max speed is about 6,200 RPM.
    If you would like more info about your system you can get the iStat Pro Wedget (free)

  • Increasing fan speed and temperature

    my temperatures and fan speeds are slowly getting higher and louder on my imac g5 2nd gen (17", w/isight, 1.9ghz). i've never noticed my fans before. the only time i ever used to notice my imac made any noise at all was in the dead of night when i shut it down and noticed the absence of noise. but a couple of months ago i started being able to hear the fans when i play world of warcraft. since then, they have slowly gotten louder and louder, and they allow my cpu temp to get higher and higher before it stops rising.
    before i could hear the fans i never noticed the temp, but after i started hearing them, my cpu temp usually maxed out at around 148º. now it is allowed to get to 167º and stay there while i play wow. and the fans are so loud i have to use headphones to be able to hear the game. simply surfing the internet now causes higher temperatures and fan speeds than playing WoW did a month ago.
    should i take it to a service technician to see if anything is wrong with it?

    Have you ever cleaned you machine? Since it's an iSight (which is actually 3rd generation, Ambient Light is the 2nd, Rev A the 1st), you can't open it but you can vacuum the air vents, which might help.

  • Increase fan speed on Intel Core Duo Mac mini?

    I have owned a PowerPC G4 based Mac mini for some time now. It's been (and continues to be) a great little computer.
    Just recently I bought the Intel Core Duo version. It too seems like a great little computer.
    However, I've got to admit that the amount of heat the Intel version puts out is staggering. The internal hard disk claims to be running around 119-126 degrees Fahrenheit. I put a thermometer near the vent on the back and it topped out at 120 degrees F. The bottom pad is nearly too hot to touch. This computer is running a distributed computing project.
    Far be it from me to second guess Apple's engineers, but the fan is never turning very fast at all on the Intel mini. It is running, though, and appears to be doing as it was designed to do. (I've seen my PowerPC machine get to rip-roaring during the summer.)
    Running the Apple Hardware Test shows that the Intel mini's fan can speed up quite a bit. I'd like to know if there's a way to request a higher fan speed outside of the Hardware Test. I know I could pop the thing open and just "forget" to reconnect the fan speed sensor wire to command the fan to run at full speed, but I don't want to invalidate the warranty.
    Maybe I'm being silly, but I prefer that my computers be moving enough air from them to keep things cool regardless of noise level.

    The smcFanControl utility is what ended up solving this problem. Turning up the fan speeds just a little bit resulted in a very noticeable cool-down.

  • How to increase Fan speed | HP Travelmate 8510p

    Hi everybody,
    I post here because I have an issue that last from more than year with the temperature of my CPU. It's always near 50/60 when I'm lucky, and it can go to 90 degree and make the laptop crash when I'm running costly applications (like compiling stuff or playing games).
    I would like to force the fan to run faster, like it was when I was running windows on the same laptop, so that the CPU (and also at the same time the keyboard which is burning my fingers) stay cooler.
    Here is a sensors I just made :
    DeepThought# sensors
    radeon-pci-0100
    Adapter: PCI adapter
    temp1:        +39.0°C 
    coretemp-isa-0000
    Adapter: ISA adapter
    Core 0:       +61.0°C  (high = +105.0°C, crit = +105.0°C)
    Core 1:       +63.0°C  (high = +105.0°C, crit = +105.0°C)
    So it's seams the issue is realy the cooling of the CPU.
    I tried stuff described here : https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/fan_speed_control but it seams I havent any PWM control on my laptop, or otherwise some drivers are missing :
    DeepThought# pwmconfig
    # pwmconfig revision 6166 (2013-05-01)
    This program will search your sensors for pulse width modulation (pwm)
    controls, and test each one to see if it controls a fan on
    your motherboard. Note that many motherboards do not have pwm
    circuitry installed, even if your sensor chip supports pwm.
    We will attempt to briefly stop each fan using the pwm controls.
    The program will attempt to restore each fan to full speed
    after testing. However, it is ** very important ** that you
    physically verify that the fans have been to full speed
    after the program has completed.
    /usr/bin/pwmconfig: There are no pwm-capable sensor modules installed
    So if you have any advice, any method to try, I'll be happy to hear about it
    Thanks,

    The output is empty (nothing found).
    > - Disassemble the laptop and replace the old thermal pads / thermic paste with new thermic paste. In my experience, this has yielded outstanding results.
    I did it and it helped a bit, but doesn't solve the problem, and don't last long.
    Pretty strange that I cannot force the fan to run at the highest speed.
    > - Use a scaling governor to prevent the cpu from scaling to it's highest frequency
    I may try that.

  • Is it possible to increase upload speeds?

    My upload speed is reported as being 0.31mbps by BT's own speed tester, and checking with speedtest.net gave a somewhat similar 0.34mbps today (though this moves around a lot between 0.05 and 0.25 normally).
    Is there a way of boosting this?  
    I've read about line speed capping, is this something that folks know how to verify?
    Here are my line stats.
    ADSL Line Status

    Are you connected to the test socket? With your attenuation and a good line i would expect a connection speed in region of 13mb. Your upstream speed may well increase to .8/1mb at the next reset

  • Possible to increase broadband speed?

    I'm currently on BT Unlimited and our speed currently averages about 6mbps. I did a speedchecker test and at some point in the last few months we can apparently get between 10-17mbps which would be a massive upgrade considering there are 8 people in my house.
    While I'm at it, I have an issue with pings. My house has quite a few people using the connection at once; is there any way to throttle the traffic on the connection to protect the ping and quality of the connection rather than push all the data through at once causing high pings?
    Cheers.

    Hi to answer the second part of your post first there is no way to throttle your connection
    Ifyou post your hub stats that will enable us to see what sort of connection speed you should be able to achieve to do that enter 192.168.1.254 into your browser address bar then navigate to adsl someone here can advise what to do next

    Memory? No, the RAM is permanently soldered to the Mainboard, and there is no proviso for expansion.
    If instead, you are speaking of the 128 GB SSD, then it may be possible to i ncrease the storage. See macsales.com

  • Increased fan speed after Leopard install

    Hey - Just installed leopard today on my intel core 2 duo blackbook, and I have noticed that where under no processor load my fans would run at about 1800 RPM. Now, it has been consistently at about 2600. I have reset the SMC (I think that's what it's called, the PMU on PowerPC systems) and updated to 10.5.1. Has anyone else experienced this??
    Thanks,

  • C220 M3 Fan speed

    Hi all,
    We have our new C220v2 M3 server in our LAB rack and we can hear the fans constantly going from about 10% to 40% RPM.
    Any ideas what's happening?
    There is no load on the box and it's constantly doing this. 
    Josh

    Can you clarify which fans are constantly running?  Case/chassis fans or PSU fans?  Reason I am asking is that I have a TAC case open right now for PSU fans running abnormally higher than they should even at low temperatures, while the case fans run quietly (as expected).  So if you are seeing the same behaviour as me I would be very very interested to know.
    You may also find that the case fans tend to rev up a lot once the Front Panel temperature sensor gets to 30 degrees Celsius.  So even if the rest of the case is cool the case fans will start to really speed up once the ambient temperature at that location goes past that magic threshold.  There are other factors and sensors as well that trigger increased fan speeds.
    But anyway like Kenny has suggested we really need a show tech to know what temperatures your server is recording and what speeds the fans are running to know if it's normal or not.

  • K8N Neo4 Setup - Issues Adjusting CPU Fan Speed - Alarm Going Off

    Building this PC for a friend, and I just got it to post.  Everything seems to be running stable, only when I get into the CoreCenter, the CPU Fan alarm is going off and the speed is flashing red.  It is currently running at about 820 RPM, but the CPU temp is sitting at 37'C and the sys temp is 32'C.  Is this too hot, is the fan speed way too low, I'm somewhat new to this.  I set it to Cool'n'Quiet and it still does it, I disable Cool'n'Quiet and try to increase CPU fan speed manually, and it won't increase.  Any input would be greatly appreciated.  The rig is setup as follows;
    MSI K8N Neo4
    AMD 64 3000+
    Kingston 512MB DDR400
    80GB Seagate ATA
    nVidia GeForce 6600GT 128MB
    Antec NeoPower 480W

    You can adjust the alarm level by clicking the little red arrow(Hardware monitor option) on the right side of Core Center, move the slider for CPU Fan Speed Alarm to the left(set it to 500-600rpm), and click OK.
    Now you shouldn't get alarms any more.
    The fan speed and temperatures you report are very similar to what I see on my system at idle. The fan shold begin to run faster if the system is under load for some time.
