Hi Toms,
My Latop has a 4gb ram a 5th gen core i3 and an Nvidia gt930m dedivated card that i have piruchased just a couple of monts before.
Now that my exams are over I spent most of the time playing games.
Now just recently I have doscovered that Fan noise from the system increases whenever i game.
why so suddenly? earlier it was working perfectly!
and no, It isnt affecting my FPS during gameplay so its not any memory, so why so suddenly?
Should I worry?
I have been palying 4-5 hours all day, so where lies the problem?
I play games life GTA 5 and Assassins Creed Syndicate!

It is not uncommon for laptops to have large spikes in fan speed when playing games. If it was working fine before, then you may want to get some condensed air and blow some dust out the fan\vent area. You will want to stick something like a toothpick or plastic pick to prevent the fan from overspinning when spraying condensed air into the fan.

Another idea might be that if you are back at home from school and are playing on a monitor, the higher resolution would take more resources and cause your laptop's fans to work harder to keep itself cool.
