CoreBook X 2023 I3-1215U Fan noise and USB-C charge

Hi All,

I am considering purchasing a CoreBookX i3-1215U, and I wonder if it can be charged via USB-C, if so, which charger are you using?
Another concern is the fan noise. Is the fan always on? How loud is it?

Many thanks in advance,
Marcos

Hello Marcos,

Corebook X canbe charged via USB-C but it requires a Charger that delivers minimal of 20V 3.25A (65W). Any power output below this, it will not charge.

About the Fan noise… With Windows 10 I used to have Fan running a little faster without much use and with a high note irritating noise.

After I installed Windows 11, I dont have this issue anymore but… You can find some topics in the forum where some users still face the annoying noise of fan running high speed more than usual.

That being said, Fan is not always on, it is activated when temperature thresholds setup at BIOS are reached.

I would say that for me, noise is not that loud, but it’s the tone of the noise that may be annoying for some people.

I can say that is much less noisy than the noise of a Acer Nitro 5 that usually is very hot and with fan at max even in idle.

Regards,

Thanks a lot indeed @coyotefert , very clear explanation.

Cheers
