Often while rushing to work or school, we accidentally forget to bring a few essentials. This includes chargers for our electronic devices.
Now, if you forgot the charger for your cellphone, you would simply connect it through a USB cable to your laptop. But what if you forgot your laptop’s charger?
Suddenly you are running low on battery and you cannot afford to shut down your laptop. Considering your colleagues are not carrying a compatible one, you will assume that you are out of luck. This bitter-experience will become a reminder and make sure that you bring it with you next time!
The only problem is that this is the least of your charger related worries; there are other inconveniences such as a bad AC adapter, the charger getting damaged due to low voltage, blackouts, or in worse cases the charging jack breaks. Fortunately, there are several ways you can still charge your laptop.
Type of USB port you need
You can charge other electronic devices by connecting them to your laptop via a USB port but can you charge your laptop via its own USB port?
Absolutely! Over the years tech industry developed USB ports that offer power input as well. Before I go any further into explaining how this works and in what situation this is viable, I need to discuss the types of USB ports.
1) USB Type-A port
These ports have a flat and rectangular shape. These are the standard USB ports that PCs and laptops are equipped with. Easily recognizable, they may support USB 2.0, USB 3.0 or USB 3.1 technology depending on the hardware.
These ports offer data transfer, power output, connectivity with printers and other devices. In our case, we can not utilize these to charge our laptop since they only offer one-way power.
2) USB Type C port
This is the latest type of USB port and it is quite different in size and shape as compared to the Standard-A. It has connectors that have the same size as that of a micro-USB connector.
Unlike the Type-A connectors, you don’t have to worry about the correct orientation. It has an oval shape and features USB 3.1 or USB 3.2 technology and data transfer speeds of up to 10 and 20Gbit/s.
The USB type C offers not only almost all the features of its predecessor but has power input too. This is going to help us with charging our laptop without a dedicated charger.
Today in this article, I will explain how you can still charge your laptop without needing a dedicated laptop charger. So without further ado, here are the 5 ways to charge your laptop without a charger.
Charge your laptop with USB Type C port
Gets benefits from your car battery
Use a universal power adapter
Use universal auto/air adapter
Charging your laptop’s battery externally
1. Charge your laptop with USB-C
To charge your laptop through your USB-C port you need a power bank with a USB-C connector. Assuming these are not so hard to come by, your colleagues might be carrying these.
All you need to do is connect one end of the USB-C cord with your laptop’s USB-C port and the other end with the power bank. However, keep in mind that the power bank you use for charging your cellphone is not recommended as we are looking for at least 12 volts of power while most of the USB chargers offer around 5 volts.
Power banks offering less than the rated voltage for your laptop will not be useful. If you have access to a USB-C charger and an outlet you can just go ahead and plug that in.
You can also use your mobile phone to charge your laptop if it has a USB-C port. Connect your USB-C cord with your laptop and your cellphone, go to your mobile phone’s USB connectivity settings and enable the option to supply power. This might drain your mobile phone’s battery but it can prove helpful if you really need to use your laptop.
If you are looking for a laptop to buy, you might want to narrow down the list to ones that have USB-C port. Similarly, when buying a power bank make sure it supports the required minimum voltage.
2. Get benefits from your car battery
Sometimes you are on the move and can only carry a limited number of supplies. What if you have the USB-C port but no power source to connect the laptop too? Your car can be a useful charging tool in dire times. In this case scenario, you can use different methods to recharge your laptop.
For a relatively easier method you will need an AC adapter, having a USB Type-A connector at one end and a USB Type C connector on the other end, and a USB charger. Now all you need to do is plug the USB charger in the vehicle, turn on the engine and connect the USB-C connector with your laptop.
The second method will require some creativity and you will need a built-in voltage regulator which is often available in several automobiles. The voltage regulator helps you to step down the battery voltage to the required amount. In this method, we are going to hardwire the laptop to your car’s fuse box.
The only problem is that laptops are not able to lower down the incoming voltage are designed to accept their native AC adapters as a power source. This is where our voltage regulator comes into play. By connecting the laptop to the voltage regulator and then to the car battery, we can lower the voltage to the required amount.
Another beginner-friendly method would be to use a power inverter. The power inverter can be connected to your car’s cigarette lighter outlet. These can provide sufficient power to charge your laptop.
3. Use a universal power adapter
Universal power adapters can be a good investment if you are using old laptops and don’t plan on replacing your machine. These are adapters that are available with several interchangeable charger tips. So you need not worry about losing the tip that is compatible with your laptop either.
The upside on these is that some of these can be connected to your car’s cigarette lighter. Additionally, you can share it with your colleagues since it has quite a number of interchangeable tips for most commonly used laptops.
The downside is that the performance can be lackluster unless you have a premium adapter and, in most cases, it isn’t a better substitute than your dedicated adapter.
Unless it provides the optimal power, there is a chance of it reducing the battery’s lifespan. Some premium adapters offer voltage settings, however, and might be worth checking out.
4. Use universal auto/air adapter
Some laptops can be connected to the universal chargers available in cars or airplanes. A power cord might be required depending on what universal charger your car has to offer, but some can make do with a USB cord.
Make sure that the universal charger works with your laptop prior to connecting it via a USB cord. This should go without saying but this procedure requires that the engine is running.
5. Charging your laptop battery externally
This might be quite helpful the charging jack has been damaged or if your laptop does not have a USB-C port. This can be done in a number of ways. Check if your laptop has an AC adapter available, if so, then connect the charger with the adapter port of the battery.
If this isn’t viable due to lacking some requisites, you can get an external laptop battery charger. Make sure the external charger meets the requirements of your laptop’s battery as each has different specifications.
Considering you don’t have a backup battery, next time you buy one, make sure it comes equipped with an AC port. Keep charging that while you use your laptop. This way you can be ahead of time and have at least one fully charged battery at your disposal.
Guru’s Verdict
It is always better to be prepared beforehand. Make sure to plan ahead of time so you can tackle the situation when it arrives! If your work requires you to run several applications simultaneously or in general your laptop’s battery gets drained quickly, it might be a good idea to purchase a spare battery equipped with an AC port.
If you still frequently run into situations where you run out of battery you can purchase an external battery charger. Also, if your laptop is quite dated and you don’t plan on upgrading it yet, it might be a good idea to purchase a premium quality universal power adapter.
When purchasing a new laptop, make sure that it has a USB-C port. The USB-C port is surely going to replace the Standard-A in a few years completely since it offers everything better. This purchase will surely benefit you a lot in your work.

Do you just come across the Vulkan Run Time Libraries file on your computer? And think that it is a virus that is transferred to your computer because you had not scanned your friend’s pen drive while inserting it in your PC.
The simple and straight answer is “No” VulkanRT is not a virus, nor it would harm your system or privacy.
You are not alone who is concerned about the presence of the Vulkan run time library file. This is a common question many windows users had asked over dozens of forums.
The users shared their experience that the program found in their Program Files (x86) folder or on their apps list in Windows 10.
Many among us also had been taking this file as malware or spacious thing that appeared on their computer without any pop or notification.
Yes, the presence of this code like file raises many non-tech guys eyebrows and they should be concerned about the security of their system. Do not worry these files are not malicious software neither a malware or penetration tool.
If it is not malicious software or any malware, what is the purpose of it? Let me elaborate on the presence of Vulkan Run time libraries and narrate you the whole story behind.
Is VulkanRT a virus?
It is not a virus but an API (Application programming interface) that is used for the display of our system.
In simple words, the file is generated by display cards Manufacturers Company such as NVidia, Intel, AMD or any other. The file gets updated when you update your video driver. It is not a virus, malware, penetration tool but a computer API.
The Vulkan Run Time library file is a set of communication methods between the 3D software developing company and hardware.
Before VulkanRT companies have been using OpenGL and DirectX for enhanced 3D performance in gaming and display.
It is a new standard for better CPU/GPU and to get the balance communication between computer hardware and software. This file also used to distribute workload among multiple CPU cores.
I have mentioned it before that it is normal to find VulkanRT files in your company, especially if you have just updated NVidia Drives or software. Before installing the updates, NVidia Drivers check for the presence of VulkanRT files. And if this is not available, they first install this file before any permission.
So, do not panic, it is nothing that hurts your computer or privacy. Just leave it there and do not bother.
The Main Purpose of Vulkan Runtime libraries
Rest assured, the file presence is not going to put your privacy on risk. There is no need to delete it, actually, you will require this file if you are playing games or expose to 3D usage on your computer.
The new graphics standard in the place of OpenGL is going to help you in playing games and have better videos watching experience or other graphics tools.
The main purpose of this file is to lower down the CPU usage, as it renders cross-platform access to modern GPU in different devices from PC and other consoles including mobile phones. This helps in getting the excessive work uniformly distributed among the multiple CPU cores.
I have mentioned it in the above section and going to explain it once here as well. The file most of the time is generated if you are installing the latest NVidia Drivers.
The drivers before installing any update or files ensure the presence of the VulkanRT file, and you would not receive any pop-up or notification windows.
If you are a gamer you will behold the file on your computer. For a non-gamer, the file may or may not be there. And in the case of a non-gamer, you can uninstall or delete the files as well.
There has been a big fuss due to the latest wind32/subtab!blnk virus. Many users reported this as malware and demanded its instant uninstallation. Many used premium tools and tried to manually block this software from their computer.
How Vulkan Installed on my Computer?
The software gets installed on your PC with NVidia driver or any other display drivers you install including AMD and others.
The VulkanRT files are necessary to provide smooth communication between our hardware and application. If you have not upgraded the drivers for a long, it might not be there on your computer.
The VulkanRT files also come with the games. If you have recently downloaded a game and installed, some games for smooth communication, first check the presence of this file, and if they do not find it, they create it first. Yes, games utilize this wile and it comes handy for any latest game.
Do I need Vulkan runtime libraries or should I remove it?
Yes for gamers, you need to have this file installed on your computer. Without the file, your computer performance in rendering 3D graphics or running the latest games can be altered. As the programs are a replica of OpenGl and Directx12, so ensure the presence of the file on your computer.
In fact, you have nothing to do with the file, just leave it there, where it is. Do not try to use any premium defenders or other tools to consider it a spam file, virus, malware or any injection. If you do so, you will start to behold an altered, decreased visual performance on the screen.
If you are not a gamer that indulges in the latest games, the presence of the file might not hold a key significance. In that case, you can remove this file, as it does not occupy tons of space out of your system, so I do not think of any reason forcefully removing this file.
So, my recommendation is, do not remove the VulkanRT file. Just let it there where it is, and if your premium anti-virus is telling VulkanRT malicious software, just remove that warning or skip it.
If still, you want to delete it?
If I were you, I might not have come that long. I would not have deleted the file that is important for my games or even PC videos running. If you have a final desire of uninstalling the file and searching for the ways to get rid of this file, just narrating it for you.
Yes, you can delete the file, and it would not be that difficult. You can go to the control panel of your computer, find this file and click on uninstall. Or you can search the file on the left windows and can find an uninstall button to get rid of the file.
If you are using Windows, go to the settings and click on Apps and features. Search “Vulkan Runtime Libraries” and uninstall the tool.
But, I am warning you not to uninstall or delete the file. The file gets automatically be there with the next NVidia Update or installing any latest games.
When going to buy a product, we almost always look for the following factors: our needs, our wants and good quality to price ratio. While considering these factors we tend to ignore some components of a product that are exclusive to it.
When purchasing laptops, you will always be one step behind no matter how good you are with computers; the technology for the hardware has evolved a lot and will keep doing so.
Our priorities tend to change depending on our profession or any other purpose for which are investing in a laptop. Some of us prefer more storage space, some of us prefer a good amount of RAM or CPU;
Some of us prefer one that has a good graphics card or a big display so we can game or watch movies on the go; Some of us prefer laptops with the latest USB-C port, some of us couldn’t care less about either of those and we just want portability and adequate battery timing.
Understanding these, we go online or to a local store for a machine to satisfy our requirements. A month or two later a new laptop arrives that has all those specifications and more. Also, it is almost at the same price mark! If only you waited a bit!
On the other hand, sometimes you need to go get a laptop but the optimal time of the year to get one has passed you by. Therefore, it is better to know when should you go spending money.
There are several things to reflect on; there are the dates to remember when Intel releases its new generation and when Nvidia releases its graphics units, there are the months to remember when HP, Asus, Acer or Apple release their products and the months when there might be a sale on the old products.
This article will help you understand these and introduce more variables that will help you get an optimal deal.
When Do New Laptop Models Arrive
There are a few things to keep in mind before you buy a laptop or any smart product in general. Companies will prefer manufacturing a laptop after the announcement of a new processor generation or a new graphics card series by Nvidia or AMD.
This, of course, gives them edge over their competitors as the sales pitch appeals to more audience; in an average customer’s mind the thought ‘newer means better’ is predominant.
This is not to suggest that you too should go blindly for a new product by your favorite brand, but you might want to look for the release details of new processors and graphics cards prior to looking for laptops.
This will not only help you give a hunch of when the new laptop models might be coming out, but also you will be able to understand the performance of those components before hand.
Similarly look for other upcoming technologies such as the USB-C that came a while back to be aware of what the next models may be packing.
Although companies release their laptops throughout the four quarters and there is a certain disconnect with some of their products and the release dates of new hardware.
Their popular trademark series (that appeal to a more active user base) seem to coincide with the announcement of Intel’s next generation processors and Nvidia’s or AMD’s new GPU series. You are probably better off going for these popular trademarks even if they are a year older.
When is the best time to buy a laptop
“When do you need a laptop” – is the first question you should be asking yourself. From there, you can look for a date when a certain manufacturer releases their products or a date when there might be a sale.
If there is no specific answer to that first question, you can be more flexible by choosing either of your favorite brands with the required system specifications and a reasonable price.
Right now, we will discuss the time intervals of the year which impact the price of almost all electronics.
1. Back-to-School Season
This time of the year is well known for the everyone in the education branch to purchase essentials and the sales go really high as parents, teachers and, of course, the students are keen to acquire all that merchandise.
Thus the prices go down a bit as the products get sold in abundance. Whether you fall in this customer demographic or not, you might want to benefit from this sale point; this might be a good time to buy your laptop if you need it around this interval.
This time of the year is also well-known for laptop manufacturers to release their new products in the market, to capitalize on these sales. Hence the last two weeks of July and the first two of August are to be kept in mind when considering buying a laptop.
July itself is a very important month as Amazon prime day falls somewhere in the first two weeks. So look forward to the month of July if you are in no rush, as it is right around the corner!
2. Black Friday & Cyber Monday
These celebratory events for the thanksgiving holiday season, when almost everything is on sale, must be taken advantage of regardless if you need any electronic or not;
If you believe you might need a certain thing going in the next year, go for it! Needless to say, this is one of the best times of year to get a laptop that has high specifications (or any laptop in general). If you were not able to get the goodies in back-to-school season, save your bucks for this month!
November is also the time of year when AAA game franchises release their prominent titles; if you are looking to buy a gaming laptop that is too expensive around the year, this holiday season might be a good time to invest in one.
Best Time To Buy a MacBook
One thing is for sure, these notebooks don’t appeal to a casual buyer as they are quite pricey and to top it off their accessories are really expensive as well.
Macbooks are mostly popular among developers; these can be used for both iOS and android applications (with some tweaking). These are also loved by engineering students, graphics designers, video editors, musicians and creators of all kinds.
If there’s one thing Apple doesn’t follow, it is a set of schedule on releasing their signature laptop models. Like other brands, however, they are known for refreshing their macbook models once a year.
This sometimes puts them in a tough spot; when they release their macbook prior to release of Intel’s next generation processors, aside from macbook enthusiasts, people will prefer the laptops featuring the latest generation of Intel processors.
Contrary to their other products, the macbooks don’t always seem to receive a significant price drop after a successor is a launched. Regardless, look for older models that are on sale, if they suffice your work needs.
The new macbook air 2020, with its base model starting at $999, is a good buy right now if you are looking for a good portable machine. It features a better keyboard than its predecessors and faster processors (1.1Ghz dual-core Core i3 for base model and 1.1Ghz quad-core Core i5 for the upgrade).
If you are more into macbook pro, wait a bit for the back-to-school season or any sale season to come live. The macbook pro 2019 came last year, so don’t expect a newer model until late this year.
How to know if you’re getting a good deal?
Going for a laptop can be quite tricky; you want the laptop to be viable for modern times but you don’t want it to be too pricey. Also, it would be quite a bummer if you wait for that new product but it turns out to be too expensive.
The good old quality to price ratio maintenance becomes quite hard when you don’t know what you should be going for and what the future may bring. This is why it is necessary to remember a number of factors, a certain company associates with their series of products, among which the most obvious one is pricing.
1. Price History
Utilize sites to compare the price history; camelcamelcamel or Honey are chrome extensions that help you track and compare prices on Amazon. Observing the price history will help you speculate the expected price of what is coming next.
Comparing the price history of the formidable trademark series of each company will put you in a position where you can decide what brand to stick with.
2. Price comparison
Now looking at history will definitely establish a mindset of what you should be going for but the odds might not work out the way you planned.
Therefore, it is necessary to compare the price of the products you are shopping for. Explore different stores with the specifications of your choice and compare prices.
3. Be Aware of Fake Reviews
Fake reviews are easy to spot as there is next to no criticism and exaggerated praise on the features. There are several tools that help you determine the legitimacy like reviewmeta.com for amazon.com, which gives you quite an informative review analysis, and fakespot, which analyzes and identifies fake reviews.
Best Place To Buy a Laptop
Now you have definitely establish a mindset of what you should be going for but the next problem is where to buy it?
1. For the brand enthusiasts
Brand enthusiasts prefer buying their products straight from the manufacturer, particularly Apple fans. Ordering straight from the manufacturer is quite expensive as there is extra cost and shipping fees; however, you get the option of extra RAM, storage or a processor upgrade.
This tweaking makes those extra fees worth it. Buying straight from the manufacturer’s site is also a good idea if you have done your research.
2. For people looking for variety
Amazon, is your best bet if you want variety and best price. It features a laptop buying guide and with its several reviews. If you haven’t done any research yet, you can use amazon’s laptop guide to assist you according to your needs or the specifications you are looking for.
With its easy payment options and fast shipping, amazon appeals to both casual and serious buyers. The variety of sellers and their different builds can sometimes appear convoluted. This is why you need to have some knowledge on the model and the specs.
3. For the keen researcher
Newegg has got an edge over amazon in terms of authentic reviews. It appeals to people who love doing lots of research before settling on a laptop.
Newegg also helps you narrow down your options relative to different specifications. If you like to read people’s opinions regarding certain products, newegg might interest you.
What to consider before buying a laptop?
This is probably the most important part to observe when buying your laptop. Laptops are designed to appeal to various types of people exercising different professions; an arts student, a businessman and a gamer are probably going to walk out of the store with different laptops.
These factors will help you decide what laptop should you lean towards according to your needs.
1. RAM & Storage
For the major part, RAM (Random Access Memory) is responsible for the performance speed of your computer. Most laptops come with at least 8GB of RAM these days.
If you are a casual user who watches movies or does browsing, or a businessman who uses spreadsheet, powerpoint or similar tools, 8GB RAM should suffice.
If your work involves Autodesk or CAD work, video editing, coding or similar activities that could do with some speed, the 8GB to 16GB is a sweet spot.
Going any higher would be an overkill, unless you are someone who does gaming, 3D animating or rendering, then go for a laptop with 32GB or 64GB (provided you are willing to spend the money of course!)
People today prefer at least 500GB of storage regardless of their usage. If you are purchasing a laptop as a travel companion, you need not stock up on more storage; go for no more than a 256GB SSD. SSDs enable your computer to have faster boot times. If you are a casual user who watches a lots of movies and you don’t need faster boot times, go for a 1TB HDD instead.
People who do demanding projects and work on 3D animations will prefer a separate SSD (at least 256GB) for their operating system and a separate HDD (at least 1TB); some of the people, who perform storage demanding tasks, will prefer just a larger SSD (around 2TB).
2. Processor and Graphics
Do you perform task on your laptop that are CPU intensive? If your laptop usage revolves around browsing and watching Netflix (or similar activities) then a Intel® Core™ i3 processor will do just fine for the following tasks.
Considering the performance of Coffee Lake and Comet Lake, the i3 will still make your machine a beast for modern times. You could even settle for an old Intel Atom® as these tasks are doable on those machines as well.
People who do office work often settle with older generations of Intel® Core™ i5 and should transition to at least 8th generation Core™ i3. For gaming and other CPU intensive tasks, AMD is more preferable however, If you are looking for an Intel substitute then the new i7 processors look quite promising.
Video editors, gamers, animators and 3D designers will prefer high-end GPUs. Laptops, that come equipped with the latest RTX 2080 or its predecessor GTX 1080, are what these fellows should be looking for. If the tasks you plan to perform are not GPU intensive, then go for a low-end/integrated GPU machine.
3. Size and Display
This factor is less of a need and more of a personal preference. Most people who use their laptops for streaming videos are going to prefer a larger display. Gamers too would prefer laptops with widescreen.
Keep in mind that you might be sacrificing some portability while going for a bigger display. Similarly, gamers would be sacrificing the portability altogether while going for a gaming laptop. Some laptops, although having decent specs will still offer quite good portability such as the HP Spectre x360.
4. Ports and Battery time
Laptops with new technologies and in this case ports are always appreciated. Laptops with the latest USB-C port are more preferred these days as this port offers significantly larger data transfer rates (10-20GBps) and they offer two-way power too.
On the other hand if the same laptop is missing the key ports that are crucial for your work, the purchase won’t benefit you much. If you are purchasing a laptop for office work and it doesn’t have an external display port, your machine is going to be obsolete when you have to give presentations.
Everyone prefers a good battery of course. This is where you should consult the reviews of the laptop as the promised timing of a brand new battery is going to vary after use. A good battery timing is essential if you travel a lot.
if you are looking for the answer to why is my laptop fan so loud you are at the right place my friend. Whether you are a college engineering student, a businessman, a programmer or a gamer, there is a laptop that suits your needs and nothing beats the feeling of being able to work (or game) on the go.
This is, of course, thanks to the portability of these computers. Making a, otherwise bulky, machine portable, you have to sacrifice the little room you have between the hardware and of course the cooling solutions you have with your desktop PCs are lost here.
Hence, the airflow is not as optimal; the heat generated in laptops is generally higher than what is produced in PCs of equivalent hardware. To dissipate the heat, there are fans installed within a laptop and ventilation is provided within that compact space.
But do these fans compensate for the heat generated in the confined space? How loud should they be? Do you need a laptop cooler? All of this is going to be answered in this article right here. Here a top reasons 8 why your laptop fan is so loud.
Dusty Fan
Suspicious Malware
Too many Processes Running
Heating Overtime
Using A Squishy Surfaces
High-Performance Power Settings
Outdated Bios
Expert Advice
Why is my laptop fan so loud
1. Dusty Fan
This issue is found in older laptops that are still underused. For laptops that are older, most of the times, the only reason your fan is being a little too loud is cause of the dust that has been either: – settling on the motherboard, settling on the fan or blocking the vents.
Older machines tend to run in this problem more often, as users stop caring about keeping them clean. If you haven’t already tried cleaning your laptop, this would be a good place to start. With a few precautions, you can do the procedure yourself.
Unplug the battery and any other power source.
Flip the laptop so the bottom is facing you.
Unscrew the panel, find the fan and vents, and proceed with a low power blower (even your hair dryer will work).
If you use it more often and in an open environment, your laptop is likely to catch dust quicker than it would in a room but even so you can discard this as a factor if your laptop is still under warranty.
2. Suspicious Malware
This issue is quite alarming and could be more harmful than other factors. Recall that one time, when you installed software from a shady website and now for some reason, your laptop seems to have slowed down.
It could be that it contained a virus which keeps on duplicating itself wreaking havoc on your storage and with the rate it multiplies it causes your CPU to heat up and your fan speeds up, hence, getting louder. Sometimes there is malware that runs several of its instances, overloading the CPU and hence causing the laptop to heat up.
Recently, malwares are being utilized for cryptojacking (i.e. using other resources of other PCs resources illicitly to cryptomine). This will not only use your PC to mine, but will also increase the power consumption drastically. If not taken care of, this can be detrimental to your hardware and reduce your laptop’s life.
To check if your computer is running anything malicious, open your task manager and look through the applications and services. If you notice anything suspicious look it up and if it is something harmful, delete the root file.
Malwares, spywares and viruses can cause loss of important data files and it is better to purchase an Antivirus package to keep your computer safe. Antivirus should be one of the essentials you install on your computer when you ready it for use. This package will protect you against various threats that the Windows Defender overlooks.
3. Too Many Processes Running
Occasionally, your computer might heat up due to CPU or GPU intensive tasks it is performing. It is understandable when you are the one running the programs regardless of whether they are in the foreground or background.
But sometimes your PC is in idle state (according to you) yet the performance seems to slow down and the laptop seems to heat up anyway. On running your task manager you observe several instances of services host, chrome and applications that run at start-up, consuming your CPU like no tomorrow.
This issue is the most common among others and can be resolved easily. Services host processes are essential for running the windows services although they should not be tampered with generally; you can go to Services (by pressing Windows key + R combo and typing services.msc) and disable some safe-to-disable services.
Some applications that run on start-up might be using a lot of CPU as well and you can end their processes without any repercussions. On the other hand, this could be a call for upgrading your laptop – if the applications that run on the start-up are necessary for your work.
4. Heating Overtime
After prolonged use, the laptop fan sometimes doesn’t suffice for the amount of heat being produced. Continuing to work in such a scenario becomes difficult as the PC slows down, and when you have too much work to worry about, the fan being loud is quite a nuisance too.
As a general rule, if you are going to be using your laptop for quite a while, it is better to use it in an air-conditioned room. Alternatively, you can purchase a laptop cooler to keep your laptop cool and assist your laptop fan in keeping the CPU functional. External laptop coolers are quite cheap and very worth your money.
If you have a chunky laptop with high-end CPU and GPU, chances are you might be playing some AAA titles on it or running some really demanding applications like CAD. With all that in consideration, there is only so much the laptop’s fan can do to dissipate the heat produced by these behemoths. Invest in a laptop cooler – it will save you on a fried processor!
5. Using on Squishy Surfaces
Laptops need a hard flat surface to get comfortable breathing; there should be no blockage near the vents so the fans can properly dissipate the amount of heat it normally can. On soft, squishy surfaces the vents receive hindrance and the surface itself adds to the heat to the laptop’s bottom.
Depending on how good the laptop’s cooling system is, what specs the laptop has, what applications you are using and how long your sessions are, the laptop’s heat will build up over time. As a general rule, if you are going to be working for longer sessions, it is better to avoid soft surfaces such as a bed, a sofa or your lap.
On squishy surfaces, the heat accumulates faster than it does on hard surfaces. You may use a laptop cooler here with the cost of some portability (i.e. you can’t put it on your lap now!)
6. High-Performance Power Settings
Windows features, power savings settings for people who want more battery timing as compared to the performance. Casual users and even some professional users don’t have much to utilize from the high clock speeds their CPUs can offer.
With the high-performance power settings, any potential for saving power is neglected and some components are not allowed to rest – even when the PC is in idle state. Hence, the laptop overworks itself for no reason.
Lowering the power settings will, minimize performance as it will lower the maximum power state threshold for the processor and will maximize power savings in the link power management for PCI Express devices (i.e. your GPU).
To change your power settings, follow these steps:-
Open Control Panel
Click on Hardware and Sound
Go to Power Options
Select Power Saver
If the performance is too low you can select Balanced instead. Otherwise, you can edit the power plan to your preferences.
7. Outdated BIOS
Although BIOS being the cause of your fan speed going wild is quite rare, it is worth configuring. Updating your BIOS will also help you in troubleshooting other problems.
Note:- Only install a new BIOS if you are experienced and make sure to back up.
8. Seeking Experts’ Advice
If you have not been able to resolve this issue yet, contact your laptop manufacturer (if the warranty is still valid) or take it a repair or a service lab. Remember that electronics will only work as efficiently as you take care of them.
Is it really bad if my laptop fan is loud?
Needless to say, for the most part, it is not necessarily bad if your laptop fans are a little loud. With a little room for breathing, laptops tend to heat up over time and if your work hours require you to run the laptop for a length of time, it’s no surprise the little guy is making some noise.
Similarly, under the extreme workload and while you are running CPU or GPU intensive tasks, the board tends to heat up (since in case of laptops the GPU is embedded or soldered to the motherboard) and so it is expected that the laptop fan will get a little more audible.
Sometimes the laptop is being used in a warmer environment and the fan has to work harder to dissipate the heat. Thus, it gets a little louder. Working often in such an environment might be detrimental to the health of your laptop. Avoid using your laptop in such places If possible.
For the sake of understanding if your laptop needs to be diagnosed or if the behavior is normal, you need to recognize the noise your laptop makes in such common situations. If your laptop fan gets noisy without any of the given or similar minute reasons, you may need to troubleshoot.
An automatic increase in fan speed is the result of laptop components heating up more than the average temperature threshold, this could reduce your laptop’s lifespan and it is essential to diagnose the cause so that any potential damage can be avoided.
The following factors will determine whether the fan is acting abnormal and what variables should be changed to have it running in the optimal condition.
Laptops have become one of the most widely used standalone computer gadgets. This only device has revolutionized the entire concept of entertainment, office-work, and even education.
You get this simple gadget along and display presentations, read books, play video games and socially connect to each other.
But there is another face of the coin; with increased powers and affordability the machines are catching excessive heats. And for those who love to play online games, this is a bulging issue.
Though, there has not been any suitable solution to cope with this issue. Even the biggest brands working on the planet are facing the same heat issue.
This heat issue not only makes your machine to automatically shut down but cause permanent damage. Sometimes when you do not pay attention to this problem, the silicon chips get burned and you get a dead machine at the end of the day.
So, let’s first dive into the reasons why laptops catch excessive heat. And then we come to the solution, and getting the machine cool down from the immense heat.
Why Does My Laptop Get So Hot?
First, you need o know, what is an overheating of a laptop? A warm laptop, with a working fan emitting heat, is an overheating laptop.
it is natural that a machine generates heat. And the fan installed in the machine is sending them away so that the components tightly packed into a bundle do not burn away. You need to see these mentioned signs if you get any of these; your laptop is getting excessive heats.
(1) The fan of the laptop is running at its high and laptop has slow down.
(2) Laptop so often shut down automatically, unexpectedly.
(3) The laptop is too hot to touch, and you cannot put that in your lap.
If this is your laptop, and you find any of the mentioned, you need to visit the service center to fix the issue. Otherwise, the machine may catch permanent damage, and you will have to put the money into purchasing a new one.
Why Desktop Computer does not overheat as much as Laptops do?
Laptops and desktop computers both face heating issues. And even on computers while having stretching gaming hours may lead you to trouble. But, PC heating can be addressed quite easily. There are some easy to get solutions what one can follow to cool them down.
But, for a laptop it is difficult…!
For a laptop, it is not easier to provide natural airflow, what we can provide to the PC. Cool airflow can make the laptops cool down, but the components of laptops are tightly bundled in one space that it is hard for air to reach.
If your laptop s getting bit more heat to comfort, there are ways to make it cooler. I am not saying the 110-degree machine would turn into an ice machine, but it surely changes the temperature.
Here are the 10 Simple Ways To Stop Laptop From Overheating
1. Find A Flat Surface
This is one of the biggest reasons why our machines lifespan shrink, the place where we put them while using. Using a laptop on beds is one of the biggest causes of generating an immense amount of heat.
And if you are a big fan of watching Netflix web series on your bed, you might think twice before watching them again while lying on your bed.
The laptop undersides tiny vents are made to emit the natural heat generated by the machine. And if you place a laptop on a smoother surface, these undersides go unobstructed.
If you place a laptop to a flat surface, like on a table the air flow becomes higher and you get natural air flow moving. The beds smoother surface blocks the natural airflow, thus the heat starts absorbing by the silicon chips.
You need to consider buying a laptop board or laptop tray. And while using them on your bed place the machine onto the tray which will make sure the machines are getting natural air flow.
Even if you do not think any heat coming to the machine using on the bed, you will see the result within a few months. The fan gets jammed, and stops working, natural heat will not be emitting, and this laptop will be a burner.
2. Cleaning Out The Dust
Dust probably is the most common reasons of a laptop catching heat. Dust acts as an insulator or blocker to the natural airflow, which made it the powerful subject to creating immense heats.
And if your machine is old, it is a prospect that the dust hidden all inside of the machines blocking the vents. The laptops are very different from computers, and they are difficult to clean out with dust.
Cans of compressed air can help you in this regard, and you will not be opening the laptops even. Cans would act as wonders on these vents and vanish all dusts from the hidden insides. Make it sure that your machine is turned off and unplugged, and use the average shot of compressed air.
We want to go one step ahead; you can unscrew the panel to check the bottom dust.If your manufacturers have a strict policy regarding unscrewing the machine, you better stop. If you once could open the bottom, you would see the fan and safely clean it out for better results.
3. Invest in Cooling Pads
The above-mentioned dust and cleaning out ways could help you slow down the heating. But, if your machine is not older and you purchased a new one and getting excessive heats issues, purchasing a cooling pad would be necessary.
The cooling pads are manufactures having one objective in minds, cooling the laptops down.The cooling pads blow the cool air to the computer to reduce the external temperature.
I purchased a cooling pad once and I was quite impressed with the results. But for purchasing even a cooling pad you need to be careful. Attaching a fan and a stand do not make a good cooling pad; make sure you read customer reviews before purchasing a new cooling pad.
4. Power Management Settings
You need to check either your power management settings are properly activated. And if they are not, make it sure to activate the proper power management settings.
Open power options on your computer
Tap on the change plan setting
And select the advanced power settings.
Be sure that your computer has enabled the highest level of cooling. This setting varies from computer to computer, and you need to find out the active cooling option and enable it.
Plus, if your computer is working fine do not go for the update of any of the installed applications. This can lead you to more power generation, and result in excessive heats emitting.
So, lower down the total load onto your machine, the heat generation will surely come down.
5. Standing FAN
A standing fan could be a better temporary solution to your burning laptop. You can set up a standing fan near your laptop which could provide the cool breeze.
As I said before, it would not be a permanent solution. And you need to have a cooling pad or encounter this issue.
6. Shut Down The Computer
You need to believe it; the biggest reasons of overheating are running lots of programs simultaneously. It could be playing high graphics settings video games, watching High definition videos, or using high-intensity applications or software, or doing lots of tasks at one time.
So, when you get to see the machines has raised the temperature too high to handle, you need to shut down the computer. This is the easiest and shortest way to temperate cope with the issue.
You need to save your all changes, at turning off would undo all saving without proper savings. Close all the programs turn off all the browsing and just put the computer to some rest.
Leave it turned off for several minutes, to lower down the temperature, otherwise the overheating will see your machine altogether.
7. Adding More RAM
Having a less than required RAM may lead to excessive heat generation. Yes, the RAM of a computer is temporary physical hardware, where the computer place and retrieve the tasks temporarily.
When the computer reaches a RAM limit, it start generation loads of heat. It can be addressed wisely by adding more RAM to the computer, to keep it cool and to get better performance.
Reducing the load could be a quick method to bring some cool for a laptop computer. Turn off the unnecessary background running application.
Go to the task manager and see which tasks are eating your RAM, CPU, and performance. And check out the most performance eaters and end those tasks to lower the overall workload.
There are applications which can even get this job done more efficiently. Apps such as Speccy will have a close eye on the CPU, GPU, and overall load or heat generation.
You may notice that particular high-ended software are taking your computer down, or high-ended graphics setting making the machine to slow done. Turn off all the apps and software, in this way you surely will get a better temperature.
9. Check The Fans
Good working fans are the best way to have the best performance laptop with average temperature. Your laptop has fans with the vents, to push hot air to flow out from the machine.
If your laptop is older, and the fans have stopped working, you need to replace the fan. Or there can be a jammed fan owing to the lots of dust indulgent.
You can check if the fan is working properly by placing your hand along the vents. You would see the hot air coming out, if it is not happening, probably you need to replace the fan with a new one.
To blow out the dust stuck into the fans, you may use the speed fan or a computer blower. That blower will push out all the dust resulting in a properly working fan.
10. Reduce The CPU Clock Speed
If you are a pro laptop user, you might have overclocked the laptop CPU speed for getting better results. An overclocked CPU could be the most probable reasons for generating lots of heats.
With an overclocked CPU you get the advanced performance, with generation lots of eating on the other end. If you have enabled this option, and getting issues regarding heats, it would be ideal to turn on the default clock speed and you get the problem solved.
PC gaming is one of the best ways to get entertained. The gamers love to play high-ended video games on PC due to many reasons and today I will show you how to optimize Windows 10 for gaming and enjoy beating your rival with some extra performance.
The numbers of PC gamers are sky-rocketing. As per the latest reports, about 1.2 billion people around the world play video games on PC.

It has been quite a time since Windows 10 hit the grounds. Even after 4-years using this OS, I see most of the pro-gamers are not using this operating system to the fullest throttle. Either they are unaware of many useful features or they do not know how to get them in use.
It is crucial to optimize your Windows 10 for gaming. You need to ensure your system has everything needed to run the latest titles video games.
Just check the requirements, as, during the game, the system must not bother you with unnecessary pop-ups. To make it sure, the system must not affect your gaming, you need to disable many features, application or software.
In this article, I am going to cover various areas of optimizing Windows 10 for gaming. Windows 10 has huge offerings for potential gamers, and a pro-gamer must learn those features and add value to PC gaming.
If you are the one finding it hard to optimize Windows 10 for gaming, you need to stick to the screen and read the entire article, I am sure at the end of this, and you would get your issue cleared.
Windows 10 lag behind other operating systems if you just look at its gaming mode feature. This is something out of the box Microsoft came up with the latest Windows 10.
The gaming mode is specifically designed to help the gamers to boost up the gaming performance. This latest innovation works with optimizing the Windows hardware by focusing the gaming needs.
The computer enabled with the gaming mode will prefer gaming tasks more than any other in the queue. This changes the entire priority system, and you suddenly witness a boost in gaming performance.
In simple words, this mode is solely dedicated to windows PC gaming. If a user switches to this mode, the PC will prefer gaming tasks execution over other background tasks. The users can easily switch to this mode and make the computer render the highest level performance for gaming.

2. Windows 10 Visual Effect Settings
This tweak can also boost your Windows 10 gaming performance. I always recommend this, especially for the low-end gaming system. For a high-end gaming systems, the step may not impact a lot, I check this regardless.
Press Windows key +I
Press performance
Select Adjust the appearance and performance Windows
Click Adjust for best performance
Apply Changes
Press OK
In simple words, our computer installed Windows OS is set to provide a beautiful shiny interface. Here in PC gaming, we need every inch of the processor into gaming. So, we are disabling all shiny visuals to add-up the total performance towards gaming.
3. Disable Steam Auto Updates
Steam by default got the configuration to update the game automatically whenever it has a network connection. The technique helps a lot and the users get updates in the background while the users play the game or do their tasks.
But, some necessary updates can fetch you out of the playground and put in the queue waiting. This wait kills the playing experience and makes you think over disabling the auto-updates.
Though, all updates cannot be disabled from one button. There are no such options. You can disable those updates which can pull you out from the middle of the game.
In steam, account selects the settings
From the settings click on Downloads
Now, you can uncheck the download during the gameplay.
Now, you are good to go. This optimization will leave you to experience the finest and hiccup-free gaming experience.
4. Max Power Plan To Improve Windows 10 Gaming
If you want to get the highest performance of the processor to play gaming on your PC, you need to change the power plan to the highest level.
Yes, I have proof of my statement. It’s has been tested that a Windows computer comes at the highest level of frequency when the power plan is set to the highest level.
The overall CPU performance improves, thus the gaming tasks expedite. This tweak can help you in improving gaming performance and producing efficiency to process the remaining tasks.
On the left side of the Windows click on the Windows icon
Select the power option
Click on the Additional power settings
Make sure the power saver plan should not be chosen
Select the high-performance power plan
By default, Windows 10 uses a balanced power plan setting. It means the computer will only generate enough power required to tackle the latest task.
5. Keep Your Drivers and GPU Up-to-Date
For a PC gamer updating the system, the frequency must be a weekly to-do thing. The updates are very much important which keeps your system less vulnerable, more powerful and performs better.
You should always make sure the latest available updates installed in your system, along with GPU updates. Windows itself is efficient in releasing regular updates and keeps close eyes to the system security.
To install the latest updates you need to follow these steps
Click the start button on the lower-left corner of the screen.
Click on update and security
Click on the check for updates
Wait for some minutes to update your operating system. This sometimes takes several minutes, even hours. Have some patience and stick to this step until unless all necessary updates installed.
Graphics Card Update
For gaming, the GPU is a crucial component. If your GPU is not up to date according to the latest innovations, the latest AAA titles might not run seamlessly.
Windows also help you with GPU updates. The GPU updates are a pain in the neck and most of the time eat hours to get installed.
Find the model of your graphics card
Go to the manufacturer website and search for your GPU model
Download the driver and install them
Restart your system
You can use different driver software to get this done. The driver software such as Driver Easy is a great tool to find all necessary driver updates and install them automatically.
6. Speed Up Windows 10 By Installing DirectX 12
I do not want to add a single letter by myself when Microsoft itself has made it clear. Microsoft officials’ handlers revealed that by using DirectX 12, you get an extra 20 percent improvement in frame rates.
This also decreases the processor utilization for other tasks such as boost. DirectX has been a front-runner for the Microsoft operating systems. This accelerates multimedia applications such as 3D games and videos playing.
If you have not already installed DirectX 12 in your gaming system, just install it. If you have an older version of it, update it to the latest version.
7. Set Your Active Hours
The Active hour feature of the Windows 10 is a double-edged sword. It helps the users get updates without manually turning on the updates.
This active hour function is set up to run updates in the system in non-active hours. This checks whether the user using the computer or not and install updates.
This feature can make you spoil your gaming experience from the core. I have seen people losing in battleground just because the key players’ system restarted automatically.
This happens when you do not set the active hour feature and let the computer decide it wholly by itself. This would not resort to an issue for a casual gamer, for a pro gamer, it is more than a disaster.
So, always use your active hour feature wisely and make the proper settings to restart the computer when you are not using it.
You can configure it by following the mentioned procedure.
Settings
Update and security
Change active hours
And set the hours when you do not play games at all
If you are impulsive and do not know your gaming hours, you can completely turn this feature off.
8. Turn Off Mouse Acceleration
Mouse acceleration hinders your performance, especially in first-person shooter games. By turning off this point precision you will get the movement of your mouse more accurate than before.
Point precision, hidden in the control panel, makes your mouse not only move on the basis of movement but speed.
Go to the control panel
Select Hardware and sound
Click devices and printers
Choose the mouse from the menu device
In the mouse properties, windows click the pointer options

Click on Apply
You are done
9. Disable Automatic Update and Restart
The updates installation makes the system less vulnerable towards hackers, Trojans and key loggers. The latest Microsoft operating system Windows 10 updates also keep your system smooth. You need to install the latest updates and keep the system up to date.
The problem is sometimes these automatic updates hinder in the middle of the games. You are playing a game and aiming at your enemy, suddenly in the middle of nowhere, update pop-up surface. This makes you miss the shot or killed yourself.
The gamers must turn this feature off, but keep visiting the section regularly. As the latest updates can help you boost the gaming process as a whole.
To turn this feature off, you need to follow the mentioned instructions.
Open the Windows setting
Click on the updates and security
Under the Windows Update tab, you see an advanced option
Click on it and see the automatic update setting
On the front of other gaming programs, such a stream or other game stores, such automatic updates come in the middle of the game. You can follow the same procedure to turn them off.
If you turn the updates off, you would not ever face an automatic system restart ever. Automatic restart really kills the amusement from the game and sometimes works against you and your team in the battleground.
10. Disable Unnecessary Startup Programs
Startup programs are those programs or applications which launch upon the startup. The more startup you have added to the system, the more time your system will take to fully boot up.
These programs most of the time runs in the background without the user knowing. I just checked mine now, and I am awestruck about half of the dozen unnecessary and useless startup programs were there without me knowing.
I think most of gamers do not know the number of programs and they slow down the performance while in-game. You can check the startup programs and can disable accordingly.
Open the Windows setting
Click on the Apps
Click on Startup option
Turn ON/OFF according to your needs
Some startup also helps your security and you need them running in the background such as defenders. Do not turn off such startup; they help you against viruses and Trojans.
11. Disable Wi-Fi Sense
Wi-Fi sense feature is very helpful and designed to make our lives easier. The way this feature function has attracted lots of unwanted attraction. This feature stores the WI-FI passwords and makes your system automatically connect to those connections.
Such as you went into a Coffee Shop and connect your system with free WI-FI. Next time, you pass by that coffee Shop; your system will automatically connect to that system without asking you manually do it.
In the same ways, it works for hotspot sharing and saves the password. In the mechanism of storing the data and connecting to the network, there are loopholes, vulnerabilities.
Upon, noticing those vulnerabilities the expert advice to turn off this feature. This stores the password upon sharing your system’s information to the network.
It leads to security concerns and you need not use it for gaming. This is easy to turn off. Just follow the mentioned steps.

This is very effective and will make you achieve the highest level of gaming. If you do not have enough budgets can go with any of them.
I would recommend upgrading both of this hardware and getting a smooth sailing in undisturbed water.
RAM upgrade
Adding more memory to your computer increases the speed of the computer. This also helps programs launch swiftly and boost multitasking.
Your system will be handling more than one task at one time. Install a new memory on your system of the same model.
Upgrade to SSD Hard drive
The hard drive stores your games and other data permanently. Solid State Drive aka SSD is the fastest storage disk you come across.
These drives increase the retrieval time of your data and your gaming speed accelerates. Once you get to use this type of hard drive, you would never be able to use conventional hard drive ever.
Upgrade Graphics card
GPU aka Graphics card is the team behind handling visuals. When you are about to deal with a plethora of visuals, GPU assists CPU and makes the process super-fast.
If your system speed is slow and takes time in displaying high-ended videos, you need to upgrade the graphics card. The card will enhance your gaming experience and you enjoy it from the core of your heart.
13. Clean Up the Registry With Ccleaner
A super important and less addressed feature to boost up your gaming performance on Windows 10 is registry cleaning.
Windows 10 registry is used to store the data, information, and settings about the application, software, and other Windows files. This helps the system launch and access anything on the computer easily.
When we play games and use our computer days and days out. The number of information, settings data, and data about the games and preference reached the highest level. This takes a load from the processor, and the processor has to deal with this data along with the game processing.
If you do not delete the registry files after some days or weeks, you see a marginal difference in the speed of the computer. The speed of processing that can be used to process your games is wasted in doing nothing.
You can manage that registry and delete them. There is no automatic way to delete useless registry files. A user has to do it manually using third-party software such as Ccleaner. This software helps you delete useless registry data and clean up the entire system’s registry.
Download Ccleaner and install it on your computer
Run this program
Click on registry
And clean up the registry file until no file remained there.
14. Closing Unused Apps
On Windows, the apps you download from the official store, continue to run the background. The download data, update to the latest version and show a notification. Sometimes, we just get them for a specific purpose and forget uninstalling or disabling them.
They drain our battery, show unwanted notification and sometimes come into the middle of the gaming. We need to close those unused apps in order to optimize your Windows 10 for gaming.
In Windows 10, you can easily close them by following the mentioned procedure.
Open settings
Click on Privacy
Click on Background apps
And choose which apps to run in the background and which and close the rest.
15. Uninstall All Irrelevant Softwares
In the Windows operating system, you install any application or software to perform a specific task. You sometimes install an application, get the right use of it, and forgets. These apps stash up and clog up to the system boot up.
Your system starts taking minutes to start and shut down and you never know what is going with it. If you follow the process mentioned, you easily get all apps and irrelevant software uninstalled. It is very easy to get rid of that software and uninstall them with one tap.
Press Windows icon
Open settings
Click on apps
You can click on any of the programs, obviously unwanted software, and uninstall it.
You cannot uninstall more than one application at one time. Click on one and wait for it uninstalling.
