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.
  • Possibly linuxEnglish

    I think he means that the CPU may be spiking the instant you open the lid.

    Maybe test it with a ssh connection?
