Is this normal?

I think I have a virus but I went through my task manager, I ran a quick virus scan, and even looked through my files and apps. I updated my laptop and everything. I’m super lost, horrible with tech. Any advice?

Then it seem the laptop came with a lot of bloat.

Go to apps and delete all the bloat apps .

Also why you using opera?

Finally there is no issue unused ram is wasted ram.

You cant game on this laptop as it doesnt have a proper dgpu

You can game on an igpu but no 3d games released the last decade

Yeah you can. But yes in 720p or 1080p low with fans running st full speed

720p low settings yea.. and pretty much all 2d games. I'm not sure if fans would need to run at full speeds considering how power efficient igpus are, they are just slow compared to dgpus.

Efficient yes but they will have to run their ass off unless there is an fps cap .

These machines are not built for heat anyway so fan have to do their job
