Question Max out fan speed

[Jimcuchim]

Is there anyway to max out my fan speed at all time(to reduce throttling). At the moment I don't care about the noise at all. I have a:
Lenovo 320s-131kb
i5-8250u
No graphic card
4GB RAM
I really need my CPU to not throttle to record game plays.
Thank you alot

This wont stop throttling. If the temp passes the TDP of the cooler then all it will do is slightly delay the throttle, but max temp will be reached.

So is there any way to stop my cpu from slowing down and lagging my recoriding?

You can try and raise the laptop off a flat surface about an inch so that it has more airflow around the bottom. Outside of that the only way would involve Voiding you Warranty by opening up the laptop and replacing the thermal grease on the CPU heat sink with higher paste or going for a liquid metal thermal compound.

you could also try a laptop cooler pad.

I would try to undervolt the cpu using intel xtu before I open up the chassis.

Thanks. I will probably just raise the laptop up.
