US 2023/0400900 A1 · MANAGING THERMAL AND ACOUSTIC CHARACTERISTICS OF AN INFORMATION HANDLING SYSTEM (IHS) BASED ON THE USE OF EXTERNAL PERIPHERAL DEVICES

Abstract

Systems and methods for managing thermal and acoustic characteristics of an Information Handling System (IHS) based on the use of external peripheral devices are described. In an embodiment, an IHS may include a processor and a memory coupled to the processor, the memory having program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution, cause the IHS to detect that a peripheral device is coupled to the IHS, and, in response to the detection, modify a thermal or acoustic characteristic of the IHS.
