Core V2 Connection Problems - How to Troubleshoot

I have a Core V2 with an nVidia 1660 card which I use with 4 different laptops (depending on who in the house has their laptop plugged into it). The most consistent thing is the inconsistency with connections and I would like to know if anyone has any advice on troubleshooting. Many of the problems are reported on other threads, but here is my list of what sometimes/often/rarely happens. I should say that I am not a gamer - I use this mostly for the extra performance from the GPU in multimonitor setups and the connectivity to USB and ethernet. Never recovers from sleep. Once a laptop has been in sleep mode it will never reconnect to the GPU without a restart. Plug and Play is broken Some laptops don't recognise the USB or GPU devices until after logged in to Windows, sometimes requiring disconnecting and reconnecting the cable Some laptops intermittently lose the ethernet connection. Troubleshooting it in Windows brings it back for a few moments, but then it drops out again.

Razer Core V2 Chassis Fan Replacement

I would like to replace the very noisy chassis fans on the Core V2 (the V2, not the X - most of the info on the forums/web is about the Core X. I's almost impossible to find V2-specific results) with quieter alternatives. Not the PSU fans - the chassis fans. There are three thin fans on the bottom of the V2. I disconnected them all and it is now almost silent (it's definitely NOT the PSU fans that cause the most noise), but, of course, it's not ideal to disconnect them entirely. They basically stay on 99% of the time at full or at least high speed and the noise is very loud. I guess I have two options - throttle them with a resistor (if that's even possible?) or other means or replace the fans with quieter models. Does anyone have any suggestions or guides? D.
