Please also note that it is much safer and profitable for Dell to sell products that have lower temperatures even if they are noisy. In case of thermal request decreasing fan speed might be impossible and limited by hardware design itself.
Dell have some engineering services on Taiwan and in Texas but they might just control overall job of ODM, prepare initial product requirements, validate production units etc.Ģ. Compal (ODM - Original Design Manufacturer) design Dell (OEM - Original Equipment Manufacturer) laptops so even if Dell send some bug or feature request it will take months and it can always be rejected by ODM. when battery level is below 20% then Dell cuts performance about a half also on battery performance is higher than when is powered on using 130W power adapter (these things are in Precision 5540).Ĭhance that Dell solve a "problem" is rather small from several reasons:ġ. Try DellFanCmd command line tool or HWinfo (Sensors -> Fan -> Manual -> set slider to 50% (in my current Dell use generally three fixed fan speeds: 0 rpm, 2400 rpm and 4800 rpm) or just use Quiet mode in Dell Power Manager but then laptop performance is significantly reduced or have serious problems eg. The display on 5510 has better color accuracy. 5550 has a 16:10 display, which is better than 16:9 on 5510 for work. But it's much harder to use than the smaller one on 5510. Besides the fan noise mentioned above, its keyboard is worse than 5510's, although neither gives great typing experience. How can I make the new Precision 5550 laptop as quiet as the old 5510?ītw, compared to 4 years old 5510, this 5550 is a big step BACKWARD. The Precision 5510 laptop I have been using for the last 4 years is very quiet most of time.
I also tried different modes in BIOS, like optimized (default) and quiet. I have updated BIOS and all drivers to the latest version from Dell support page. It's very annoying and distracting when I'm working using this laptop.
The fan will turn on (or go high speed) for several seconds, then it will turn off (or go much lower speed) for several seconds, and repeat for the whole day. Several days ago I got a new Precision 5550 laptop.
