I installed Pop_OS in place of ubuntu last week, and loving it so far. Most things worked out-of-the-box, but there is this one thing that has been bothering me.

Whenever I open the lid of my laptop, the fan goes crazy and becomes very loud. Strangely, changing the battery option to “High Performance” seems to silence it. Why is this happening, and how can I remedy this issue?

  • My laptop is ASUS ROG Zephyrus, and yes I should not have chosen this one.

    Besides the uBlue-image I recommended in the other comment (Link here), which should give you a great OOTB-experience and which you should try first if you want, maybe check out fancontrol.

    Sadly, fancontrol is a bit more complicated and might make your device overheat if you reduce the cooling fan speed.
