Hello everyone,
I am not new pc but on this one i need help.
I have a pretty basic laptop which is an HP CB00 NF series, I5 7300HQ and GTX 1050. It's not awesome specs but it does the job.
Issues:
- Temps are not good, so i did a repaste and applied some new pads on the VRM as well and also did an undervolt (-120 mV)
-But still… Issue i've found is that the laptop cooling pipe is okay but the layeout of the coumponents is so bad that the heat accumulates winthin the chasis and cannot disipates effectively.
Solution: I have a spare free 3,5 Hard Drive Bay that i'd like to use to install a fan
Questions:
- What kind of fan should i use ?
- How can i manage to draw power out of the sata port?
- What is the maximum power a sata 3.0 can provide ?
- What kinf of process do you think it is best to use (kind of fans, sata adaptor etc...) ?
When i benchmark my PC i see a 15% improvement compared to others with similar specs on internet, so HP did not design the laptop too bad but still, it heats up like a toaster if I push it too much. And the only brand i know from experience that have such high thermals (from experience) is Apple.
I ll be listening to your suggestions carefully!
Thanks
