Request: Target fan speed as a performance goal

Open keybounce opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

The problem you're addressing (if any)

(Hardware: NovaCustom)

While I have several options for performance, the goal that I have for my laptop is not addressed anywhere.

When I want the laptop to have long battery life, I do not want to have to spend energy on the fan. When I am working in my lap, I do not want the machine to be hot.

Describe the solution you'd like

What I want is to specify a maximum temp, or maximum fan speed (they seem very related right now). If the computer is under a heavier load? Slow it all the way down. If I'm in this situation, I want the computer to go slower, to avoid heat.

Where is the value to a user, and who might that user be?

When I'm trying to limit fan speed, the noise is a factor. The wasted energy is a factor. I'm ok with the system running slower, or doing less.

Right now there is no way to avoid the fan noise when I want quiet; there is no way to prevent it from getting hot..

Describe alternatives you've considered
