@gollum,
Actually this is very simple.
You can bring your computer into repair service stores and let technicians with expertise and experience evaluate and advise you.
Or your newly purchased computer can be brought to the warranty center where you bought it for inspection
Furthermore, you should clearly state your working needs.
Or you can do a preliminary check as follows:
- Check to see if the machine is overheating after a period of running.
- Is the operating system you use too slow?
Along with many other problems
How to handle if it overheats, you just need to clean the CPU fan and replace the CPU thermal paste. If it's slow, check the operating system, junk files, viruses ==> you can rerun the computer's operating system if you encounter this problem.
