    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Fusion IV fans running crazy under Windows 10 & 11

    Thank you SpyderTracks! That worked. I didn't see anything under Windows 11 in the downloads section, it was under Windows 10. That's probably why I didn't see it. I'm working out what the other drivers mean exactly and if they are needed. Thank you once again

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Fusion IV fans running crazy under Windows 10 & 11

    Okay, thanks. It was repasted around a year ago. Will so that again. It's strange though the fans hardly ever even run with ubuntu. When you say correctly configured before it's installed, what would I be looking for?

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Fusion IV fans running crazy under Windows 10 & 11

    Hi, I have a Fusion IV and ever since I got it, it runs slow and the fans run crazy with Windows 10 & 11. The laptop gets hot, but there is no excess dust. Does anyone else have this problem? I run Ubuntu mainly so it's not a huge problem and runs exceptionally without any of the above issues...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST GPU upgrade GTX 1660

    Thanks for that. Very useful tool. I've found RAM that is compatible. It will extend the life of it further till I can order a new build. I should have been clearer. That SSD is still installed, but I bought a faster 1Tb Crucial SSD as the main drive :) I wouldn't be able to rely on an HDD too!

    I definitely will, I'm sure it will run Ubuntu as effortlessly as my Latife II did.

    I’m sure Linux will be fine on the Fusion IV The spec is fine for Linux and what I need really. Just will be documents, web browsing, and possibly PhD work at some point down the line. Thank you for your input

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST New 14" Lafite Build thoughts please

    Hey all, So, my current Lafite 2 has gone to laptop heaven. I'm looking at getting a new laptop running Ubuntu 20.10. Ignore the SSD for now. I have one 1TB SSD and my 500Gb SSHD from my old Latife. Is there space for that on this chassis? I don't need the 128Gb so will swap that out. Ideally...
