Unmatched cooling

VivoBook Pro 15 features a robust cooling system to ensure smooth and stable performance during high-load multitasking or gaming marathons. An intelligent dual-fan design has eight automatically adjustable speeds to deliver maximum cooling efficiency with minimal noise. Its compact, hyper-cool, dual-copper thermal module leverages system heat pipes and fans to increase CPU and GPU cooling performance. VivoBook Pro 15 offers a cooling system that is on par with those found in performance laptops used for gaming, with dual stainless-steel fans that are more durable than fans used in most systems. With eight fan speeds, VivoBook Pro 15 automatically makes adjustments, based on internal temperatures. While other dual-fan laptops typically feature fans that operate independently of each other, resulting in more noise, the fans in VivoBook Pro 15 work in tandem with two heat pipes to dissipate heat more efficiently and quietly.
