    Hi everyone,

    I recently purchased a Asus K401U , i7-6500U models notebook. I am very happy about its performance, the only thing I am not happy about is the fan noise.

    It always fix speed the same when the computer starts to open 3500-3600 rpm fan speed. (no games, only Windows is idling, no any programs) CPU and ram using %12 - 15, nevertheless a lot of noise fix


    I have read alot of complaints about this on this particular type of laptop, I could not find a solution

    Who else is having this same problem? And how did you fix it? Did anyone see if there actually was enough thermal paste on the CPU? I'm still thinking about that one but am not planning on removing the cooling element.

    Any help is appreciated!
