You should hear the fan's operation, which typically sounds like a soft humming or whirring noise. The fan should start spinning shortly after the laptop powers on and continue to run smoothly. |
+ | [* orange] ***Check for Proper Cooling:*** While the laptop is running, pay attention to its temperature. If the new fan is functioning correctly, it should help regulate the laptop's temperature effectively. You can use software tools or the BIOS settings to monitor the CPU and GPU temperatures to ensure they are within safe operating ranges. |
+ | [* green] ***Monitor for Unusual Noises or Vibrations:*** Besides listening for the normal fan operation, be alert to any unusual noises, such as loud clicking, grinding, or rattling sounds. These noises could indicate a problem with the fan installation. |
