Hi everyone,
I’m trying to figure out why my Framework laptop (i5 11th gen) constantly runs its fan at max speed, even during light tasks. Strangely, the fan sometimes kicks in even when the laptop is in sleep mode overnight.
The system is installed in the Cooler Master case sold by Framework, so airflow shouldn’t be an issue. I’ve also repasted the CPU with Arctic MX-6, and temps stay under 50°C most of the time (even after a 30-minute AIDA64 stress test).
I’m wondering if there’s something in the BIOS I can tweak to fix this, or if anyone has seen a similar issue. I’m fairly tech-savvy but not very familiar with older-style BIOS settings or deeper troubleshooting in this area.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
