Are these programs free? I am using my laptop quite a bit and once it
starts getting hot, everything goes sluggish. the room temperature is
fine. If these programs are free, how do I go about installing and using
them? Wayne Scott

With some compatible processors, Speed Fan can adjust the fan speed when
the internal temperature gets too high.

Can either of these programs throttle the CPU if the temperature gets
too high?

There is just so much stuff in the world that, to me, is devoid of any
real substance, value, and content that I just try to make sure that I
am working on things that matter.

It's probably also a good idea to monitor your PC's internal
temperature with an accessible free program like Core Temp or Speed
Fan, which displays the CPU temperature in the System Tray. You can't
always tell when your PC is running dangerously hot just by the sound
of its fan.

Daily Tip:
Keep It Cool
Computers generate quite a bit of internal heat, especially if they
are running video or audio applications or multiple programs
simultaneously. Excess heat over prolonged periods of time can damage
components and connections, not to mention affect performance. All
computers are equipped with fans that dissipate the heat, but
sometimes they can't keep up, especially if the vents are blocked or
occluded by dirt and dust. In addition to keeping the vents clear, you
can keep your computer cool and healthy by keeping the room
temperature lower and making sure air can circulate around your
computer.

Most people don't know what they're doing and a lot of them are really
good at it.
