I recently purchased this Lenovo Thinkpad T16 laptop, used, on a local marketplace.

The laptop has a 13th Gen Core i5 CPU, 16GB of RAM, and 500GB NVME SSD.

The laptop is pretty new, and yet whenever the fan kicks into gear, the laptop becomes extremely slow.

Like, I will be writing someone on Facebook Messenger for example, and the fan will kick on, and then the processor seems to become deathly slow, and the words that I am typing take seemingly forever to display.

This happens on a daily bases.

I do have a lot of browser windows open, and maybe it is a Memory issue? Only have 16GB of ram, and it is non upgradable. They are soldiered onto the motherboard, so 16GB is the max.

Anyways, thanks a lot for any thoughts about this issue.
