Answer to: Why does my fan increase noise while using normally?

Apr 14 2012

The fan in thermally controlled so the hotter it gets the faster the fan turns and makes more noise. If the cpu or gpu is over heating with constant use. you may need to have someone re-apply the thermal compound on the processor or blow out the venting path for the fan. Hope this helps, Good luck Roy
