Hi, I know that the FN + 1 key controls the fan speed but is there any way to let afterburner adjust the fan speed according to the temperature automatically? the fan options seems to be unavailable in afterburner.

I seem to be getting 80 degree on full load on games like CS-GO (max) and Overwatch (on medium graphics setting). Also the area above the keyboard gets really hot to the point where it hurts when i place my own on it.

Thanks.

Actually the BIOS will automatically adjust the fan speed to the temperature accordingly without Afterburner, but your 80 degree is actually quite high for 1070. Last time during our IT Fair, we actually ran Battlefield 4 on the laptop for the whole day & the temperature peaks around 60 degrees only.

I could not say for certain, but this might be due to dust clog in the CPU fan. May I know when was the last time that you've done dust cleaning/thermal paste replacement for your laptop? Thanks.

I just got the z5 on Thursday 9/2/2017 so its pretty new. I dont think its the dust. Is there any alternate solution?
