Hi, a wifi dongle developer suggested me to install a Wifi Scanner and send a screenshot to him to see why I have slow wifi connection. Usually I don't install unknown software on my computer due to possible virus and other security concern. Is it OK to install the following app? I googled it...

Is it a good idea to adjust the fan speeds using TPFancontrol? I was checking Lenovo forum about X1C6 and X1Y3. Looks like they also have so thermal issue. In the case of X1Y3, some have the opposite effect of too hot and not enough fan. Do we expect Intel 9th gen CPUs have better thermal and...

Actually I asked those forum already. Basically, users reported about fan issues similar to mine. I cannot get info on whether using i5 would be better and if other laptops with 8gen cpu also have this issue. So, I want to ask users here to get generic knowledge.If I return the machine, need to...

Hi, I used Windows 7 on my Mac as a dual boot system for almost 20 years. I always used Norton Internet Security. Now, I got a Thinkpad with Windows 10 pre-installed, is it better to just rely on Windows Defender or just install Norton Internet Security? I wonder if using Norton Internet...

Hello, between the i5 and i7 CPU, are there noticable differences in terms of battery life, heat level and performance? I am trying to decide a CPU for the X1 Yoga Gen 3. Thanks
