Hi @Jose_Intel

Sorry for reopening an old thread, my NUC X15 also has heating issues in normal use with regular freezes from excess heat. I am running the latest BIOS update KCTGL357, however there are no fan settings in the BIOS as you mentioned. Additionally, the NUC software application defaults to passive cooling on every boot and there seems to be no way to override this. I would much prefer to set a custom aggressive fan curve but the option does not seem available.

Regards

Nathan
