Product: Pavilion Gaming 15-cx0020nr Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I want to buy an hp pvilion gaming 15 but after doing some research there seems to be a common issue with the laptop. The issue being that the fans do not go to full power when gaming which often leads to overheating and thermal shutdowns.

Is there a way to get the fans to go the maximum ? I read that this could be achieved by pressing fn+n onthe omen 15 and was wondering if there is a similar solution on the pavlion gaming. Others have said that it would require overclocking the bios and manually setting the fan speed but i dont want to have to resort to that for a brand new system. Any help would be appreciated as am even considering drilling multiple small holes into the base cover to provide better air intake.

Additionally, i'm wonering if the omen command center would work on this laptop

Solved! Go to Solution.

Hello @Nanchon21,

Laptops usually don't have software that allows fan speed change.

Your best bet is to go through these 3 solutions:

1. Control Panel Advanced power plan settings and changing the system cooling policy
2. Activating HP CoolSense
3. Setting Fan Always On in the BIOS

Let me know if you need help with these solutions.

Setting the Fan to always on in the BIOS will ensure that the fans are running at max all the time until you turn it back off. This may be helpful during gaming-only sessions.

Kind regards,

Eddy
